Never work just for money or for power. They won't save your soul or help you sleep at night.
-Marian Wright Edelman
Dear Mrs. Edelman,
I agree with your sentiment completely. However I must respectfully ask that you fuck off.
Yours truly,
Phil
I must look for work tomorrow. My money situation is desperate and I don't even want to open my credit bills anymore.
My career goal is to get into the video game biz in a programming/design position but I dont have the credentials for that yet so for now I need to find something simply to pay the bills. I need a bearable 'day job' to hold down while I get my act together to pursue my real goals.
The problem is I don't know what to look for. I've done the call center thing to death and I really don't want to go back to that. I don't think I have the right character for service work. I worked in a cafe for a bit and though it was cool I have a really hard time maintaining that forced cheeriness especially with the customers you just want to punch in the throat.
So my question to all of you out in internet land is where should I look for work? What jobs have you worked and found interesting?
