i'm a sexer.

One of the guys who can tell male chickens from female?

A very difficult job apparently.

Most of the sexers in the US are Chinese emmigrants. A good sexer can sex 10000 chicks a day. The females go on to be battery hens and the males are suffocated in black bags.

[flashback]

I am a scientist.

Allegedly.
It hurts my head sometimes. I am more of a computer bitch. GIVE ME DATA. DAAAATA. AND DO ALL THAT OTHER SHIT TOO. !zed


I am starting to really not like it. Although, people are now a bit scared of me. And i get to see interesting lectures here and there. Like today for instance.

 

[KokaneeCowgirl]

I'm a PA/Event manager in a large commercial estate agency.

Not HALF as exciting as being a sexer, I imagine.

 

[broken arm]

I work in Graham O Sullivans on baggot street. I gob in most things and have been known to dick loaves of bread.

Mention thumped for a discount!

by discount, do you mean less dick in the loaves?

kind of flukey - i was working in hodges figgis trying to pay off my debts and not succeeding terribly well (doing a masters in religious history != a great way to walk into a well paid job) when a friend of mine said the company she worked for was looking for writers, and that they didn't care whether you had any experience/training as long as you could write and had technical aptitude.

got the job, discovered that i was actually really good at the technical end of things, picked up some programming languages/tech skills, and, er, several jobs and eight years later, here i am.

and i'm still procrastinating....
