Been trying to find a Pharmacy Technician job for month now.

Apparently being certified isn't fucking enough to get a 9-11$ an hour job these days.

I received my Ph.D. in Genetics and am now a postdoctoral fellow at UCLA studying the molecular basis of hypertension. It's interesting work; however, job prospects really, really suck.

Almost finished my electrical engineering degree at University of Toronto. I am right now working at gov't corporation, very relaxing job, secure and well paying. I am considering making my career here and get MBA then go into management for more opportunities. Really depends on how my girlfriend will do with her career, if she sets off in California, i might have to find a new job with engineering firm there

Sort of the same pickle, I'd like to study at NTNU, but a girl im involved with is going somewhere else. I'm unsure if its going to turn serious enough to make such a huge sacrifice though, for either of us. (NTNU being the best uni for the degree I want)


I'm studying at NTNU, it will be worth it. Best uni for your degree as you say, and prolly the best student environment in Norway aswell with over 10% of the ppl in Trondheim being students. Only complaint I have is the weather, not that bad but it's totaly random

Aspiration: Going to start my last year of law school this fall. I'm working for a health law firm at the moment and enjoying it, so I think I may take that route after graduating.

Dream: I always wanted to work at blizzard since I'm such a huge fanboy and would have loved to be there while developing their great games. ^__^

Right now I work in RMA for a video card company. Not suppose to give out the name but it's the only one with 3 letters for the name... I would love to quit this job and do Animation or Lighting in a 3d app like Softimage XSI or 3D studio max. That would be my dream. As of right now I am working like a slave 6 days a week, reading peoples complaints about video cards.

I've failed out of college twice! Going back in the fall, studying computer science (I've got a knack for it, but not all the other required courses... :/) . I had intended to go to grad school at the Guildhall at SMU to make videogames, but now I'm not so sure. I'm gonna play it by ear, and either get an IT or QA job someplace, or if I can get the capital I'd really like to start a PC bang in Dallas. I'm poor though so that's more on the dream side until I get a stable job and money.

I'm studying Biochem and am currently working for EMSS, Emergency Medicine Scribe System. Basically I do all the patient charting and clerical work required of an emergency physician. I aspire to go to medical school and become a doctor myself!

Jobs sound like a rather unsatisfactory deal.

Most people do things that aren't enjoyable and trade their time for shelter and comfort.

Others give up any greater goals just to get by in life and to propogate. I see no end goal, no change, just stagnation in doing a job. Jobs make me sad.


To force people to contribute to society, you make it so some people to not be able to contribute as much as they could if they were actually given the time to do it without worrying about a stable supply of money.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Statistics ftw, well how are you going to apply it?
There is no option in the poll for finance?

Without statistics I would be so blind and its pretty scary thinking about it.

I'm a bioengineering major. I find the subject itself quite interesting, but I don't know exactly what I'll do with it as far as grad school vs. industry goes.

Being a professor could be fun, but I'm not sure how I feel about slaving away in grad school for 4-6 years plus another 3-5 years of postdoc to that end. At the same time, I don't know how I feel about working 9-5 every day designing the same shit for 40 years. Hopefully I can find some niche that I'm happy in.

I'm studying Architecture and on my 4th year (out of 5), thinking about taking some postgrad course in England, like in UCL or London Met, does anyone have any thoughts on this?
