You forgot your weekend job of being a male prostitute.
A job's a job.



Good news is, on the net, that makes you female............

For the benefit of all those who can't read or do research, ie, all of you under 25.

“There are No Girls on the Internet” is a tongue-in-cheek adage which implies that there are no female entities actually participating in online activities, especially when it comes to anonymous exchanges in chatrooms and discussion forums. The outdated myth also jests that the Internet is essentially a “sausage fest” dominated and defined by male internet users and a smaller population of male trolls or griefers who pose as women in pursuit of lulz.
Origin

The origin of the myth can be traced back to the male-prevalent days of Usenet, particularly in the virtual Multi-User Dungeons (MUDs), a genre of text-based online role-playing games and predecessor to MMORPG like World of Warcraft. During this era, it became a routine practice among male players to falsely pose as girls to solicit gift or other unfair advantages. Such prevalence of gender deception in MUDs was first noted in 1993 by American sociologist Amy Bruckman in her research paper “Gender Swapping on the Internet”:

“Many people, both male and female, enjoy the attention paid to female characters. Male players will often log on as female characters and behave suggestively, further encouraging sexual advances. Pavel Curtis has noted that the most promiscuous and sexually aggressive women are usually played by men. If you meet a character named “FabulousHotBabe,” she is almost certainly a he in real life."

The practice has since remained a popular trolling technique in online conversations and more recently, as an integral part of griefing in the context of online gaming. In addition, such stereotype of the average Internet user as “a geeky male who is single and desperately seeking interaction with the other sex” became further amplified and perpetuated through its frequent portrayal in popular TV shows, films and novels.

Compared to yours, which are just shit.

Big change for me.

Due to graduate in July with a degree in Computer Science, although I've finished all my exams etc.

Had a few interview, got an offer from a Logistics company as a software developer, but I turned it down as the money was a bit lower than I was hoping for and the role seemed a bit "stale" (9 month contract, no extension afterward, join legacy system A to legacy system B).

I felt like maybe I'd made a mistake turning them down, but I had a phone interview with another company on Monday which went really well and they invited me down on Tuesday to have a look round for a full day (which was a bit weird!) company was fantastic, I felt like I belonged there pretty much straight away, but I never thought I'd get an offer. At the end of the day they offered me the job! Over the moon! And even better it's on better pay than the last place.

As of Monday I'll be a software engineer for a small local company who specialise in data mining for law enforcement

Handed in my notice at PC World today...

Lemme guess.. had sex with a manager?
New job for a couple of months now, video editing of wedding celebrations, birthdays, proms etc.. .. They are all very different...

I am an IT Consultant. I get paid to fart about all day long. Mostly to tell people they are doing their job badly and put it right. Got to completely tear out a network in a few weeks and rebuild it from scratch. Just finished tearing out the network from a Gas/Energy company and rebuild it. Still have 50k (GBP) of servers to put in before they restart drilling next month.

I don't believe they transport horses in trailers like that.

That is a Chinese container, it is probably full of toy horses made out of radioactive paint.
In that case: let's have a contest to guess how many horses will go in there.
After contracting as a developer for about 15 years I took a full-time job at the start of April.

So now I'm a software developer at a company here in York specialising in master data management, doing mostly development of a new software client but also a fair amount of networking configuration because I'm better at that than their existing staff.

It's close enough to cycle to work (4 miles) and York is almost totally flat and has lots of dedicated cycle routes so rather than sit in traffic I can do a really relaxing 15 minute cycle ride to and from work each day, mostly on low-traffic roads or off-road along former railway routes.

Also it's the first time I've ever had a "proper" job, with stuff like paid holidays. For the last 15 years I've taken around 1-2 weeks holiday every two years, so it's going to be really weird taking 5 weeks off each year and getting paid for it...
according to chinese: at least 2 billion.
