I work at Boarders...<.<
I hate you... the Boarders near me isn't hiring right now. :(

I'm unemployed currently but I'm looking for work.
I only got the job because the manager and my dad are friends... besides it's a really boring job, especially the hours I work we barely get any customers...<.< but because it has free Wifi almost no websites are blocked... just you know porn and oddly enough Rotten Tomatoes... and for some reason it won't let you Google search certain words and phrases, like, The Forbidden Kingdom and One Week and Elmer's Glue and a few others but I don't remember all of them...
Do you get to read the merchandise when there's not many customers? Because that would be so cool to just sit there and read all day and occasionaly help someone.
Hell my boss is cool, he let's me get on my Itouch or laptop and do whatever I want when there is no work to be done, most of my posts on this site are done from work... I don't read much anyway...<.<
You have an entire bookstore open to you and you aren't reading? Whats wrong with you man? I would suggest you walk over to the fantasy section and grab a copy of A Game of Thrones by George RR Martian. By the time you're done reading it you'll not only be reading the next three books but also be throwing them at every single customer who walks in, in an attempt to spread the wonders of Westeros... or at least that's what I would be doing.

Most of my time is devoted to being a student, but I work quite a few hours as an English tutor, as well as volunteering with a political group. However, I've had to cut back on the latter in order to provide care giving for my ill grandmother.

I'm a student, so basically I don't do much. I do work at a radio station though. Mostly in the music department and sometimes for television, although when next year rolls round, I'll be hosting shows again. Should be fun. Would be better if I got paid for it.

well, the last time I went over and picked a random book off the shelf it turned out to be American propaganda where the villain was an analogy for communism... so I doubt I'll be doing that again anytime soon... though I did read a little bit, I finished a few William Gibson books and Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep? since I'm a huge Technophile/Cyberpunk...

Don't get discouraged just because you found one crazy person's book, there are thousands more out there just waiting to be found, and they're very lonely. I've been meaning to read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep but just haven't gotten around to it... I've been too busy rereading A Game of Thrones and it's sequels... Yeah I'm obsessed.

I don't really read regularly anyway, when I was in school I would read everyday through all of my classes... but that was just because I had nothing else to do...

I work at a movie theater concession stand. I still cant understand why people can waste so much money on popcorn. It also sucks that now that I get free movies, all the movies suck.

I'm an actor on a haunted trail!

From now until the end of the month, I get paid to scare the bodily fluid out of children, teenagers and, the elderly! I was moved around a lot but it seems that I've found a permanent nesting ground as an irradiated mutant/zombie in the toxic waste dump. It's a pretty sweet gig which I would gladly do for free but...I need money if I want to keep my phone and I need money if I want to keep buying games.

I'm a supervisor at Toys R Us in the UK, i work in customer services and ticket (Bikes, outdoors, anything too big or expensive to go on shelves).
How strange, my temp job is selling and distributor Razor scooters to places like Toys R Us. What a small strange world!

The rest of the year I work on the production of UK festivals. That's pretty sweet. Winter is downtime!
