Job Description
Lord Lazy Ghost
British army soldier. Regiment Coldstream Guards
Job Description is really varied day to day, week to week. One week I can be standing Guard outside of Buckingham Palace, or taking part in Trooping the Colour on Horse guards Parade. The next iam freezing my balls off in the Brecon Beacons on exercise in Wales. Where it rains horizontal or even upwards. Even sweating my nuts off in Kenya where I have just spent a month working and take it from me nothing gets you sweating like running around Kenya in full kit in the baking heat of the day while completing a 6 hour advance to contact. Early next year we our preparing to go out to Afghanistan for a 6 month operational tour. Come back from there and back in the red tunic and black bearskin on ceremonial duty. Interesting job hard work but fun, shame its so underpaid lol.

Now I know what you are thinking, oh boy another rich banker! I wish that was true. No I'm just a lowly peon doing grunt work for Wells Fargo.

They keep us in cubicles where we don't get to see too much light. Its quite dark in here, unfortunately the computers send us into a blank stare as there is always a constant buzz and the screen puts off just enough light to see when you have your bologna sandwich. No cheese today tho, had to cut back.

First couple hours normally are used to search these forums and other forums to entertain me while we don't have any inventory. Usually its same old stuff with whine thread after whine thread. Not today tho as I see there is this little contest going on to tell people about our boring work! We might be able to win 1b isk, hawt diggity damn so this is why I write to you.

Once those first few hours are up and we are put into inventory thats when the **** hits the fan! You start by choosing from the top of the list of "batches". They may range from 1 images to 1500 images. This is where the fun starts, you pick your batch and then you start "splitting" those images up and if they are numbered like 1 of 5, 2 of 5, 3 of 5, you can keep those all together and continue on down. These batches consist of loan documents, tax documents, purchase agreements, closing instructions, etc. Anything to do with people's loans from this bank or other banks that this bank bought from.

After you get done with the splitting its onto the identifying and naming each image. 50122, 1502, 50343, 14376, number after number, thats all I see don't even remember what half of them actually are in word format but I know the number! You keep going till your sweaty and your hands are bloody. Thankfully we don't have to have a coversheet on our TPS reports.

Kind of reminds me of that gif where the stick figure is tapping away on the keyboard then its him pounding on it and finally its him bashing his head over and over onto the keyboard. Yea thats basically my job. The only plus to it all to keep from going insane is I get to listen to music all day and not deal with other people's bullshit.

Today is also a good day they are serving us some kind of Thanksgiving lunch at 11:00 can't wait! We might get two pieces of bologna instead of one and dear god I hope they have that red stuff. What do they call it? Grrr Ketchup, yes ketchup to smear all over my bologna! Maybe I'll see the sunlight while eating, probably not since its been dark and dreary for the past few days. More snow is upon us!

Oh has anyone seen my stapler?!

I'm in... Private Equity

Contrary to popular belief, what we do is not the same as an Eve-pirate does...

Guess we're doing it wrong.

The description: negotiate transactions, being in the board, trying to influence the board to do the things we consider appropriate, establish networks and then the whole bunch of administrative issues. The interesting part about it is seeing into a variety of companies in a variety of industries.

Especially when we did Venture Capital it was very interesting to see into hundreds of business plans a year.

And if you start to receive couple of plans within the same field per week I'd advise to just let your hands of the field as it seems unprobable that the loot fairy will be nice.

If I told you I'd have to kill y.... ah, who am I kidding, I do boring front line security and close protection, well paid it may be, but interesting it most definitely is not (though it does have it fun/adrenalin moments)

Hi, so i think you might want to restart the clock as you placed this post in the wrong part of the forum.

And yep that is part of my daily job, giving unwanted advice to people who might or might not want it. :)

Level 4 Systems Engineer:

This is a normal day for me.

Arrive as my desk and open my emails, I find a list of jobs that need my attention, grab my mug of tea, grab the company car and jet off for the day around the places that need my attention. Usually im asked to fix issues with servers that have prohibited access to most others. Ive even stuck my head inside the servers of Riotgames, Blizzard and Warhammer, Warhammer had a very nice server....

Back at the office mid afternoon, drop off the car and get the bus home to play my precious MMO's :)

I <3 my job :)

I start my day by trying to convince myself that my job matters and end it totally disappointed, or standing on a pantheon among gods. I make A- look like a slap in the face and C+ look like a noble prize. I make world war III at least less and less possible every single day and I make local community a little better every single day.


My job is to make a difference...
but I drink coffee most of the time and I do not have time for all this Bear

I'm proud to be a public school teacher.


and i thought geting shot at was hardwork lolz

My job is a little different to everyone elses.

I cannot really say what t is I do. But I could tell you what happened the other day on a usual day.

I jumped through a window and shot 2 men, we call it tap tap, One on the forehead for each man with a firearm.

Im not allowed to use IP addresses that are traceable to play any game and im not allowed to use names of characters hence this stupid name ive played with for ages.

You could probably guess which regiment im from but I cannot confirm it. Its better you take it for a joke which im guessing most of you will.

yes im just crazy. Im not really an elite soldier with no name.

This one made us laugh. It was a Close one between the Soldier and this guy although the Teacher was probably the best. I would have picked him and the vote was for him. I might send him a little gift when I get some ISK.

But for now chaps, we have a winner as voted by the board.

I don't even know how to say your name but we shall call you SAS MAN. I guess

Money shall be sent via game wallet.

Well done

Bambi

plz remember do not enter a comp held by us for a while as you wont be counted. *the winner"
