I sell paint. Pretty much an even amount of architectural, industrial and scenic paint. The store I work in specializes in scenic paint thou and that's why I love my job. I get the ins and outs of films and tv productions taking part in my city/province. We have the largest scenic paint collection in the province (probably?). It's a pretty laid back job, things get busy in the spring/summer and slow down in the winter. I'm just a clerk but I've taken on quite a few responsibilities and my duty's are sales, warehouse/stock management, shipping and receiving, colour matching, and taking orders.

If anyone on GBAtemp needs advice on painting anything hit me up. Call me GBAtemp's coating specialist!

Honestly, it's really nice to see someone so passionate about what they're doing.

me ? i'm an ironworker, beekeeper, carpenter, reporter-in training (privately) and serious poster.
Beekeeping sounds awesome! We actually have a program around here that will pay people to keep bees because of the population decline.

I might have seen one of those already!! (I get lost in Youtube a lot) That's the one where you don't really have to take the bees out right? It's got like a tap on it?

yup. it make extracting honey WAAAYYT easier. its not for commercial beekeepers like myself though. it works best if your hives are 2-3 boxes high. it has a tap on the back. you put a cobtainer under it. open the tap with a FLOW key. then sit back as the honey drains itself.

Yup I totally saw those. That's exactly what I'll invest in if I go for it!
 
I'm a 10th-grader, so that's what i am currently doing. Looking to become an engineer at some point. Gonna work this summer, at what's called a "Tourist-lodge" to stack up some cash for whatever i might need it for, and to get some experience working. Nothing more than that really. On my spare time, i ride my motorcycle (Honda XL Varadero 125 2015), ride my BMX, go alpine skiing combined with freeride, and i play a lot of video-games. Fave games right now are probably the LBP-games, Ratchet & Clank Games, Spyro-Games, Borderlands-Games (Especially the second), CS:GO (I spend a lot of time playing that), and Skyrim (a fucking fantastic game). I play on pc, but i have a 3ds, a psp, and i share a ps4 with my younger brothers. I listen to a wide variety of music, from classical, to post-hardcore, to electronic genres like dnb, or house, or whatever. i mostly listen to electronic music though.

As for that job at the tourist-lodge, i'm gonna do the dishes, Clean rooms, and stuff like that.
A little tip- get an idea of what you wanna work as, then go start learning it on the web if possible. That will help your college/university/whatever learning time more painless as you would know what are you learning or how it could possibly help ya. I dont ask you to start with math and more boring staff if your not into it, start with the fun stuff and expend from there.

Hahaha, that's a good one. I wish I was, I wonder if those comics still get published today. I meant the phrase in this way though.
"OXFORD ONLINE" Sorry, i use webster's dictionary. :creep:

Besides you seem to like writing stuff, perhaps you are getting "scrapes of doe for dat arm & hammer" (Try and decode that) Whatever you do, don't do dishonest reviews. :P

Now do review of sonic 3 please. :D

I was a manager at Wal*Mart, but stepped down recently.
Now I am part of the Mod change Team. Basically my job is to go in almost every night with my crew and fuck shit up. We basically are the ones who do all of the changes to the store's modulars overnight.

i am currently unemployed , used to do some office work.

data entries / accounting and alot of paper printing was involved, did i like it, i don't think i did.

but it was better than nothing, i have only graduated from high school , so i cannot take that many jobs.

i was thinking about going to attend some private institute to get a higher degree.

and.. well i am still thinking about it, i have to do something i guess.

like my old man once told me when i was very young.

"video games will not put food on the table"

but oh well, if i did not have video games i would probably be a goner by now.
