What Are You Doing Right Now? (215 Viewers)

[Fred]

Seems like I'm quitting my job at about the right time. Declining revenue along with massive layoffs have thrown the company into bit of uncertainty.

To think that this is the company that once had a no layoff policy.

very few can convince me their job has any real meaning and or impact, it aint nothing but a paycheck, means to an end

I agree, I'm studying accounting & finance.. You think I enjoy it? fuck no haha I do it because I want to get a good job and earn good money. There aren't going to be any jobs (normal jobs) that I would enjoy so fuck it what else am I going to do? go for the $$$$$$$.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

I do what I do because I enjoy it. I'm never be able to do anything properly that I don't want to do.

Depends on the shit and the ammount of money

Work in a job you love for 20k, buy everything you need
Work in a job you hate for 30k, buy everything you need and things you don't.

If you attach more enjoyment to having an iphone than having a smile on your face sure.

I agree with Dru, having lived alone for the first time this year - money is reall important and 20k a year will give you no enjoyment - Having a job i love but constant money worries or working 8 hours a day in job i dont like but having a stress free life....its an easy choice there man.

Working 8 hours a day in a job you hate - By definition that's not a stress free life. Of Course there's the healthy middle ground doing a job you don't hate but don't love earning a reasonable amount of money which covers your bills and leaves extra for 'fun'.

I'm calculating this personally at ~£26,000 or ~ $40,000 given than rent will sap at least 60% of my income.

Aerosmith way overrated.

They ripped off Page????? That bastard Joe Perry, never did anything good except walk this way. He wishes he could have been 1/20th as good as Page is.

The Wanton Song is fucking awesome too, one of my favourites of PG.

Show me a company with a no layoff policy, and I'll show you a company with deadwood employees.

Jimmy Page make a special wonton song for you.

My friend called me, he wanted me to take him home tomorrow from the airport, AT 11PM! Like that would happen.

So why aren't you partying with Maltese hookers until 5am every night?

So why aren't you partying with Maltese hookers until 5am every night?

Since I need to wake up everyday at 5am.

That's why I have to party only on weekends.

I've seen the 5pm Maltese hookers. I think you're doing the right thing.

Imagining that I wrote a story about a man who became omniscient, and exploring several philosophical themes arising as a consequence of it.

In other news, I'm supposed to be working. :groan:

funny because he is actually part asian

He's got the look... a little.

Man, he is one of the coolest Gandalfs around. Did you see him in It Might Get Loud?

I also think back to his seminal days pre-Zep, when he partnered with Jeff Beck (and Eric Clapton). Seeing Jeff Back back from the dead on SNL last weekend was a little underwhelming, however, but it was good to see him on a public stage like that again.
