Up until a week ago, I was working as a CSR at Blockbuster. It would have been one full year next month but my store closed. I rang out customers, did Inventory checks, checked in movies sorted them and, put them up on the wall/shelves. Living at home allowed me to save up (potentially)

Luckily, I found a new place to work: I got home tonight after my 5th day working at Best Buy! Inventory now consists of unloading a huge ass truck every couple of days, scanning a bunch of stuff a lot and doing other things I assume. I'm still in the training process. Best Buy is the best job I've ever had in terms of hours and pay ^^;

I'm probably going to go back to school. I am unsure what I want to do but am thinking architecture or, some other flavor of concept art.

I currently cut grass! Originality be thy name, but hell, it's better than flipping patties.

The only thing is that Rogers TV is an unorganized mess. A lot of our workforce comes from the volunteer/co-op program. The hours are terrible where one season i'll be directing a ton of shows which is good but lately especially this year i've only been assigned to direct two shows and they're both at they're end now so i literally have no income until our season starts up again in september

I own my own paper delivery company, manage the finances, delivers the papers and make sure suppliers give me the correct amount of papers

I earn over £180 a month for doing a few hours, the exercise is nice, it wakes you up and being my own boss kicks balls

I am currently not earning income. I graduated from University about 6 months ago, and since then I've been unable to land a job. It's mostly because I've got a relatively large amount of money saved up and I haven't been looking very hard though.

I'm currently enjoying gainful unemployment. I've never had a job, and I'm doing just fine for the moment.

I should hope you've either earned that money or are planning/working towards getting a job then.

I'm dependent on my parents, who provide basic necessities. Most of my luxuries come from their charity or money from birthdays/holidays. Though the summer is winding down, I really would like to find a part-time job for the school year.

I am helping some family move their house so I guess I'm a mover, but really I'm just a migrant worker(I do any job if the pay is good enough)

I'm a part time Shipping/Receiving Clerk at a small oilfield parts business. It's really boring usually, but the pay is good and since it's a family owned business so I can get a job there anytime, I really can't complain. I think the main reason it's boring is because my co-worker, while he is a good worker, he's very quiet and he almost always keeps to himself so I just work in silence. I don't like silence.

Any complaint I have is really minor, it's a pretty good job.

None. The community I live in is (metaphorically) dead now right, with not a job to be had.

The Auto Industry is really big where I live (Being in Canada right across from Detroit AKA Motor City) and we still haven't recovered.

The only money that I actually bring into my household is from the government for my enrollment in school. And since I dropped out (I'm going back though) 9 months ago, our family has become less than average money-wise.

I beat up small children and shake them upside down for their allowance.

It's a pretty easy gig, but some days I only get small change. I also get too much of snotty tissues and dead animals that fall out of the pockets.

Currently, I book and assist academic conferences (placing delegates in rooms, setting up meeting facilities, coordinating with other university departments and so on). During the school year, I teach a tutorial.

Both jobs are good because I am generally free to do as I like, so long as all my work is getting completed, which is something you learn to appreciate after having worked for a series of micromanaging control freaks.

Also, I have my own desk, which is a first for me.
