If you have a job...what do you do...and if you don't have a job why not??

I'm fucking bored.........

This type of thread has been around for a while...most of you know what I do. I've been doing it for about 14 years...I am partners of a communications company in Tampa. I was the creator.....we have been in business for almost 5 years now...

I got lucky and was around when computers and the internet started really booming in the early 90's. I'm very fortunate for the things I've been able to do. I have some very loyal customers and I know how to make shit happen.....

I've been plugged into this industry and am pretty notoriusly know for taking projects off the street....I intimidate alot of my industry competetors. I know how to sell a job and not to over sell. Once my customers see what I can do....they usually are quite amazed at the results.

I design/install commercial copper and fiber..voice and data cabling, surveillance camera systems, card access, UPS systems, phone sytems...and just about any other type of low voltage cable. I like large commercial projects....Here is a picture of a nice size data room I built out a couple of years ago....






and you guys???

yeah...i saw your thread this week...I've done alot of work for call centers. I would imagine that is what you work at...what's the name of the place??

I know that they give you more when you sell more....but I think they eventually try to fuck you....I've had a couple of friends of mine work at Suntasia on Ulmerton.....they got closed by the feds a couple of months ago.

They had about 500 callers on a few shifts...they had MAD fucking employee turn over.

You should get involved in a trade...and work from the bottom up. You are young....go for it. Plumber....HVAC....Electrician.....something that people always need.

I do Data Entry for AvMed Health Insurance. Actually if you have AvMed insurance, chances are I've put your case into the computer system so you can have that MRI or CT scan.

It's a thankless, boring, very tedious job. But it gets me paid at the end of the day.

Thank you for asking =)

Did I say that I was fucking bored tonight? wifey sleeping..teenagers out....my 7 yr old watching TV in her room......and I'm up because I took a fucking 3 hr nap today about 2-5...


I used to be a superintendant in Manhattan.....then I ruled a few high dollar rentals in Suffolk County Long Island. I am a master of plaster...marble, tile...plumbing....I ran multiple crews of maintenance guys...landscapers...boiler techs etc...I can do just about anything in a home. I also went in the Navy for 3.5 years...The Navy sucked.....the only thing it did was turn me into a man(and give me OCD).......I went in a punk ass kid from The Bronx.....

I work for a Bank doing financial services. It's a step down from what i used to do, but I'm paying the cost to be the boss right now. I had all the experience but the banking part of the deal. I absolutely slaughter all my peers in performance, which is getting close to paying off.

its for this place called Quality Resorces. they've been around for years. we're only alowd to say whats writen in front of us cuz theres so much legal stuff involved. so we're not alowd to free style at all really. and theres some states where we're not even alowd to ask them twice if they say no. but yeah, its a sliding pay scale. base pay is 10 an hour. but once you start getting to about 70 or 80 sales a week the base pay goes up and there's weekly bonuses and daily also. so its real easy to get up to about 20hr. but they just started putting me on the phones last night. im still training but once i get better i got to earn a desk. so i got to be able to do better then someone else who is bombing out.

<-- Jobless at the moment, but I can't work how I am at the moment anyways, i'm still on crutches and will be for the next 8-10 weeks or so. But will hopefully get to my 'glorious' job bagging at publix, until I turn 18 and can finish my classes at PTEC for automotive refinishing/repairing/estimating/painting/welding, etc. but I think I might not finish that as the industry is getting worse and worse, people wanting the cheapest possible work over quality, so I might start classes for business. I still don't know, was originally gonna join the air force but i'm not sure if I still can. /rant

Joining the service isn't too bad..except if you have to go fight....that would suck, but you need to know that could happen.

i like the idea of sales though. im really good with it. i just dont like the whole script thing. it doesnt give me any room to work really. but like you said, ya got to work from the bottom up. once i get some sales ex. under my belt i can start moving to other company's that have something better to offer.
