Oh interesting thread :o

1. Cardex Corporation's Help Desk: A company that sells Interac Debit terminals. I take calls and help people troubleshoot their machines, help with their contracts and rates, listen to their lifestory, get yelled at/threatened, etc.
2. Although the work sounds crappy, pays well enough and my co-workers are the greatest I've ever had. So much so, I don't mind coming in :wink:
3. When I'm doing night shift and paperwork I listen to my ipod.

Next semester I'm going into Sexology in school, so I hope to be writing that in this topic one day :D

Actually I study and work:

1.
-Study Japanology at Bonn University as an exchange student from the Netherlands on the Erasmus-program. I'm planning to stay in Bonn and finnish mt BA here. Maybe my MA as well.
-Just started as a part-time (hentai) manga artist and graphical designer.

2.
-I really like my study and my colleagues are good drinking companions. Also, as an exchange student I have quite some contact with other foreigners here in Germany. Having parties with here is also great!
-Working to exploit my talents is a dream come true and a dream of many. Therefore, I take much pride in doing this.

3.
I listen to Eurobeat on my way to university, in class listening to music is absolutely a no-go. Of course, when drawing, Eurobeat is pumping loud!

1. I work as a back door customer service person-thingy for one of the largest Telephony companies in Oz. Back Door = I don't directly talk/consult with customers often, only once in a while.

2. It'll do for now :D The hours are ok 8am-4pm, I could work at a later time but I'd rather not get home when it's dark especially when I live ^ ^;;, and it is my fault I sleep at 1am when I have to get up at 6am :(

3. YES!!! All the friggen time, with my headphones usually though, but if I'm working overtime on weekends, it means I'm alone on the floor, I listen to it really loudly :grin:

Hehe, reminds me a few years back I worked at an amusement park, and on the last day I convinced the lazer runner people to run a eurobeat cd.

Well surprisingly after I started work at a new job I've at least been able to lsten to eurobeat a lot of the times while sorting out paper work and medical things. If I can keep a job where I can do that I guess I'll remain happy.

Work huh' all I can is my job has me sitting in front of my P.C. all day just doing research. Things like Music, Restaurants, other sites and my fav PORN. :!: Yeah! I get paid to search for new sites everyday and do reviews on them for other companies .Boring you say? hell no+ I'm on my own schedule and can listen to Eurobeat all day. That is also the reason I allways seem to be logged on to E.P. Prime responding and what not. Did I mention I do all this at home? :D
