I've been working for the same company now for 11 years, I just found one of my old contracts and it says I joined the company 11 years ago, and it was the aniversary 2 days ago.

the years seam to be flying by.....

I hope you like your job man. If i stayed at this one for 11 years, it would be because i was killed 2 months from now, and hidden in a crawlspace for 8......



I'm going on 3 years as a tech support guy (on phones.....), the wash out rate for this job is 6 months.. I hate it. I am a web designer and prgrammer, but i am stuck doing this.


And guess what? There was a big maybe that i could get promoted to web design... then they fired the entire existing group. No web guys, no possibility for promotion out of this shit job.


Guess i should Follow Gorephobia's lead and finish my fucking screenplay(s). Who knows, I may post them on my site for you guys to critique.


Sorry Shanks, didnt mean to drag your thread into a bitch session about my job.

If you LIKED your job, it wouldn't BE a job...It would be a hobby...People don't get paid for their hobbies:D :p

I like my job. Never held one for 11 years though! That's very impressive. But I have a "career" now, so hopefully I'll be holding onto it until retirement.

I want to write and make moves for a living. That is a hobby i could see doing until i am old, fat and rich :)

writing and making movies would be cool.

I've always wanted to go it alone with my own business. I want my own Golf Course and I'll attempt to make it happen some time, it's just a matter of time. I wouldnt mind being rather comfortably well off by the time im 40ish, then retire when I'm 50 and play golf all day.
