What do you work as? (1 Viewer)

[oh shit]

i am a freelance reporter/reviewer/assistant producer/broadcast journalist for BBC Radio programmes in Northern Ireland and sometimes Radio One.

unless of course you happen to work for the Inland Revenue, in which case i am a humble full-time student (as if such a thing existed).

edit: the last part is a joke, cos they tax the same anyway, and i don't earn that much over the threshold so it's fuck all.
seein as BA there's workin for the man n'all.

yeah i know - but which of us is more of a 'legitimate target'???

not paying the license fee is an instantly dismissable thingy for BBC staff.

I'm starting a portfolio course in September and hopefully will get into art college next year, then once I complete that I intend making stuff and drawing shit.

I have...no job.

I am awaiting confirmation of possible interview with a large firm with a fun name... if I get it I would be dealing with writing blurbs and refining search terms etc etc ... and I also have an interview on Thursday for a national paper.... in Ireland ... with a business slant ...which comes out on Sundays ...

I can't say any more. I won't say any more.

Well, I'll be doing my portfolio course in the evenings in NCAD. Dun Laoighaire have a new BA in Art that's 3 evenings a week for 4 years, so ideally I'll get that, so that I can stay in work to some extent too.

I have no job at the moment. I just finished school forever so i'm sort of on holiday. Currently looking for a job(not looking very hard), ideally doing something music related, but if sommit is not forthcoming in the next few weeks i'll have to go back to my old market research job which was dull, but easy.
