I'm an overnight stocker at a grocery store; I bought this account with my first paycheck in 2009 and I've been working there ever since. The work sucks but it's union so the pay's not bad.


I don't post much but I lurk every day and a lot of your posts have made me smile. You are very kind.

I'm a machinist by trade but I'm a manager here at this shop. I design stuff and fart around on the forums way too much. Also, I have a kid on the way and I'll be 44 by the time it arrives. I'm too old for a baby, especially my first one lol.

Oh I'm so glad this topic came up! I just got a new job and want to brag! It's going to be good money but the downside is I'm going to be stuck in this tiny little company town in the middle of nowhere. I almost didn't take it as there will be no girls around but I'm told there is a barrel with a hole in it I can use as often as I like six days out of every week.

I do sales for like a medical supplier but honestly I want out. I don’t really have the right personality for sales. My boss actually runs a few businesses and knows I’m unhappy so he’s been teasing moving me to his recycling business. There I’d work more with my hands and less with customers and that sounds pretty good to me. It’d be a little more dangerous and mean more night hours but the job sounds really cool. It’s like modern alchemy but instead of lead into gold I’d be transforming platinum group metals into Crystal.

Not quite, but close enough that you get the idea. Even at my own employer, I mean, honestly, my own assistant has no idea what I really do or why I am in such a bad mood all the time. Yeah, I've been in four of hours meeting about $212.14, I was literarily about to drive down to the ATM, roll it up into a ball and throw it someone in the next meeting I have over this. No, you don't want to know, I literally can't explain it to you, I don't have time to explain just the acronym pronunciation right now.

I do not work in IT, unlike basically every guy I have ever spent any amount of time with, and I am still not entirely sure how that ended up happening considering I spend all of my time on computer and only want to interact with computer

Surgical tech. I help surgeons do the surgery but I do a wide variety of stuff. Sometimes it's doing cool stuff like fixing hosed up guts, sometimes it's stuff that sucks like taking hemorrhoids out of peoples' assholes. I am learning to do suturing which is a cool and valuable skill. Y'all ever hear of vicryl? poo poo's wack

Not immediately after. The first week of recovery is apparently one of the most painful there is because the kind of hemorrhoids that require surgical intervention are generally burned out with an electrode and then the wound is sutured. We do load the rear end in a top hat up with a long-lasting local anesthetic called Exparel. The surgeons will often not take calls from patients for the first week because the aftermath is rough and everyone freaks out about it but yes it is supposed to look like a WWI trench in your rear end for a little while
