 Your job?
Okay, I'm not sure if this is too far or not, but what does everyone do for a job on here. This is a pretty expensive thing to be into, and I find myself being amazed at some of the collections of people. I'm 21 and play in a band. I really don't have a huge income. I do graphic design on the side and odd jobs, but it's surely not enough to supply this interest.
I guess more than anything I'm at a point in my life where I really want to focus on my future and what I'm into. Maybe someone is doing something that will strike me.
Thanks to anyone that posts!

I work at a law firm as an admin. asst. which means I just do BS work, fix the fax, make copies, anything the attorneys need pretty much. I hate it, but I'm going to school for EMT than Paramedics, my main goal would be to get into the Fire Dept, but it's competitive and I'd like something to fall back on like paramedics.
Here's what I thought of when I decided a career path. maybe it'll help you. 1- No office, hate it, 2- It has to be a job where I can help people directly, and 3- Something secure, something in some city, there will always be a need for.
So that's how I came to that conclusion, plus I stay up all night anyway and would have some awesome tales to tell.
I guess what I'm getting to is, don't work as an admin. asst. at a law firm

Seriously? I am sorry, I used to work in a record/dvd store that sold tons of porn, and I had to look at a lot of it all day, but not nearly as much as you must.

No crap, my eyes melted from what I dealt with, let alone watching the damned things. Some people think "Awesome" but remember, for every "18 and Tight" video, you're gonna get plenty of "Grandmas Pee Party 3" and "Warthog and Scab get Wild" videos. Also, it makes eating really gooey cheese sticks for lunch super hard.
