General Chat / Your career

Currently a high school senior....

Will be studying to be an architect next year...I haven't decided where though....

School now.

Go to major univ and major in mechanical engineering because id like to design roller coasters.

At the moment i have no job, partly because i wouldnt have time to do anything, so i help out with my mom and her self owned calligraphy company. dont get much money tho, but its not much work.

When I was there the male/female ratio was 9/1. 

That sounds like where I'm at. I swear the male/attractive female ratio is more like 50/1 though. Civil Engineering... I think I'm a junior *shrug*

... currently "between jobs" ... aka unemployeed ... aka looking for work but the economy sucks.

[font="Arial"]Currently schooling myself. I either plan on doing Consulting or 3D animation, two VERY different jobs. I still can't make up my mind though.[/font]

High school senior now.

I'll be going to University of Central Florida this fall to major in mechanical engineering. hooray.

I'm in school right now. Have 3 more years until college... So I have absolutely no idea what I want to do for a living.
I do know that I'd like to do something music-related. That, or architecture or engineering.
I really have no clue though. I'm a confused child, career-wise.

Ditto.

To the word.

I'm hoping to do something in the field of music or psychology.

As of now, I work at a nursery over the summer. Like, a plant store. Not a little kid holding center. I couldn't deal with little kids as my job...

I wouldn't consider them completely different, but it depends on the type of consulting. For example, if you were a web consultant it would have some to do with graphic arts. (Web consultants make a ton of money too)

[font="Arial"]All consultants do.[/font][/FONT][/FONT]

I'm the operating partner in an Italian restaurant.

does that mean that you are a waiter.

Well, I'm a college freshman at Claremont McKenna College, a little liberal arts college in southern California. Most people haven't heard of it, so I always explain where and what it is. Force of habit I supppose...

I'm still pretty undecided about my major, though I've been thinking a lot about pre-med. It just takes so much time, I'd be in school until about 29 or 30. I'm 18 now...

Yeah, people in medicine are nuts

I'm aspiring to do something in Theatre, Acting, or Music.

I've drawn the conclusion that I love to perform and that I couldn't live without them, so I feel that I should do it.

That, or, I'd like to be a judge.

[font="Arial"]Yeah you could do Cher impersonations, because you like her so much.[/font]

^^

Tough school. When I was there the male/female ratio was 9/1. 

haha my school is 76% chicks, hot ones too that 3:4.

im going for mostly the same stuff as jacko shanty, im good at makeing creative storys and jokes to the point i want to try to make a living off it.

I had a job last summer working in a factory. In Miami in the summer. with no AC. for 9 hours a day. 5 weeks stright. wakeing up at 6 am. driveing an hour to get their and back. i think thats why Nivana sucked so bad, lol

I write and produce music for theme parks, among other things.. like shows about theme parks (much to my surprise lately).

I minored in architecture, but bailed out due to the trigonometry. I suck at math, but I don't suck at music, so I stuck with that.

I've also worked at Imagineering. It was crushingly disappointing. I imagined it to be this glorious utopia where everyone was walking around glowing from brilliance. The sad truth is that everyone is hiding, terrified in their cubicles waiting for their pink slips to arrive at any second. Apparently it's been like that since the 80's.

I think themed entertainment is the most amazing form of entertainment on the planet. It's totally immersive, when executed correctly. For instance, I'm a jaded son of a bitch, but I COMPLETELY bought into the Star Trek Experience at the Las Vegas Hilton, and the Spiderman ride at IOA.

College student by day, certifiable lunatic at night. (well some might argue that I'm a lunatic all of the time)
