I don't know why, but the thought of an emu farm in the middle of a busy city is cracking me the hell up.

I saw a paid internship for a webdesigner at some company. Most of the skills they expect, knowing HTML, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Visio, Excel, Word are things I know, but they also perfer you to know XML, and I've never touched that.

I think I'll throw in a resume anway. It's $12-15 an hour if I get it, part time.

But that is hard labor, and all at night.

Yep. Is it strange that I'm so positive about it?

B E C K · « **Reply #51 on:** May 19, 2005, 12:35:41 AM »

No, because it's hard labor and all at night. Can you do hard all night? CAN YOU?

XML doesn't seem hard. It's like HTML but you make your own tags and define them in a header file.

Other jobs that look promising are a job as a porter at a cab company. Sure it pays $10, you park cars, do minor maintence on them, but you have to clean them too and I hope I don't have to clean puke out of them or something.

There's also jobs available at the local library for $8-$15, but some of their jobs require.. get this.. a "masters degree".

B E C K · « **Reply #55 on:** May 19, 2005, 02:27:51 PM »

I noticed that too since I go peek over at the city job listings just to see if there's anything I'd like to apply for. "Master's Degree from an American Library Association accredited college or university with major coursework in Library Science". FTW. Maybe for the head librarian or whatever but this is for a lower position, like two tiers from being a leading librarian and the position right above the clerical staff.

I dunno, Analyzing things would be hard for most people. Cause the majority of the planet is t3h stupid.

$9.20 isnt enough for those hours i think, do they pay a shift differential?

I work from 4am to whenever at target and I get an extra 1.50 for working so early.
Which actually isnt that much more than you, as Im making about $9.35 total, but I dont do any heavy lifting, just really putting up dvds and such.

Wickedly Yours E · « **Reply #58 on:** May 21, 2005, 08:55:57 AM »

IT starts at I think 8.75 with a 50 cent differential...
