Where do you work?

[XemaSab]

Poll question: Where do you work?

:shrug:

[Left Is Write]

1. I work part-time at the daycare at my gym.

I also have a home office where I do my as-yet unpublished writing.

[Generic Brad]

2. Sometimes I think I live in a veal pen

But then I look up and realize my fat ass is in a cubicle.

[XemaSab]

3. I feel like a rabbit at the pet store

in one of those high sided boxes with only a view of flourescent lights and people looking down on you. :P

[judaspriestess]

4. I work at a model home sales office

:)

[NewWaveChick1981]

5. I work in an office at a small liberal arts college.

:) It's an excellent situation.

[SPKrazy]

29. Just What I Thought

a damned librul!

;) :hug: :hug: :loveya:


I swear I read a post on another message board that was criticizing liberal arts colleges as being "liberal", which I guess since they aren't focused on supplying a corporatocracy with business clones, they are.

[NewWaveChick1981]

36. Ummmm... I thought "liberal" arts colleges were "liberal"....

:yoiks: I wonder what those clowns were thinking...:rofl:

:* :hug: :loveya:

[SPKrazy]

I was trying to think of where people work, and getting really stumped. :P

[graywarrior]

[Rhythm]

69. Olive Garden... where i work currently.

[billyskank]

13. I work in an office. In Britain they usually don't even give us cubes

We just have a load of desks in a big room, so I have to look at all my ugly coworkers all day. And we are truly ugly - this must be so, otherwise why would the IT department be the only office in the whole building with no fucking windows in it?

:D

[graywarrior]

15. Because IT is a dangerous pack of fucking lunatics.

[billyskank]

18. So it's more of an asylum than an office?

Presumably the rest of the company keeps making development requests just to keep us busy so that we don't go out on the rampage.

:hi:

[graywarrior]

20. Everyone else in the company shits their pants when IT gets uppity.

Plus, listening to IT people talk about Sim City and other computer games is intimidating and downright scarey.:rofl:

[billyskank]

23. That must be why I get away with posting on DU all day then

:D

[graywarrior]

26. Right. They don't dare interrupt you. In fact, when they have a computer problem,

the call The Geek Squad, and just pay you to keep you in your cage playing games and being irritable.

[skygazer]

21. So THAT'S why Stephen King wrote a book about them

[graywarrior]

I kind of like the place, though.

[bridgit]

22. from a home office, but our footprint is No. Calif as far as Ukiah, east to...

Tahoe/Reno, west to 'the city' & bay area, south to Tracy, and on the coast as far south as Cambria...the client service area is expansive

[SOteric]

24. I work in an insane assylum.

We just call it an office to humour the inmates.




In actuality, I work early mornings in an office, afternoons during the school term either in a media center or a classroom, and weekends at an Indian Reservation.

[SPKrazy]

25. I Work In A

hospital and I have an office

I don't spend much time in my office except working on my computer or doing paperwork

the rest of the time I'm doing clinical work with people

and the funny thing is- I didn't use to like people and I went into a profession that deals strictly with PEOPLE pretty insane if you ask me.

:rofl: :rofl:

[WhollyHeretic]

28. In offices around a few states

I work in IT

[Call Me Wesley]

30. I work at home in my office.

[Mojambo]

34. I work at a magazine/newspaper kiosk located in a mall/food court/community music venue. n/t

[QMPMom]

35. I work in an office for a major luxury department store group. I

answer questions and solve problems for them. Sometimes I take online orders when customers can't figure out how to place the orders themselves.

[Kerrytravelers]

37. I actually have two jobs.

One is at home (which I voted for.)

The second is a post-secondary private language institution, where I'll be running conversation labs, teaching a TOFEL class and giving private English lessons. That particular office is located a few miles from my house. I will most likely just jump on the bus instead of driving to that job.

[SeattleGirl]

38. I work from home.

Love it, too.

[mike_c]

39. I voted other-- I mean, you KNOW where I work....

It's like, several of the above. BTW, things are falling apart there these days. Majorly. Have you heard about any of the weird shit going on?

[SeattleGirl]

41. What weird shit, mike?

:shrug:

[mike_c]

43. budget shortfalls and bad management by a new university prez....

It's playing hell with every aspect of university life. XemaSab went to the school where I work and got her degree in my department, so she'd be especially appalled by some of the changes we're having to consider.

[blonndee]

46. Hi Mike_C!

Can a university president be fired? Hope things smooth out soon.

[mike_c]

47. not by us peons....

I think it takes the trustees or the chancelor to give him the boot. I think a no confidence vote is coming, however, which will be a start. Also, the union has filed a grievance. That might be what ultimately undoes him.

[XemaSab]

48. I haven't at all

PM me if you like.

[riderinthestorm]

40. I'm a farmer so I'm outside most of the time

Boarding, training and breeding dressage and combined training horses. We also have a small organic veggie business on a couple of acres that we sell at a roadside stand and supply to two organic restaurants. My office at the barn overlooks the indoor arena which isn't a great view but at least the lack of scenery keeps me from getting distracted when I have paperwork to do.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

44. Sometimes in a Dilbertoid cubicle.

But part of my job involves working in flight simulators, which is way better than the cube.

[blonndee]

45. Other: I work at a university. n/t

[PretzelzRule]

71. In an office

I work for lawyers, so I'm used to being abused. It's transactional work (non-litigation) though, so I do have a life outside the office. As one of the more Sr. Paralegals, my pen actually has walls and a door. And a (shatterproof, damn it) window to the outside world.

[enigmatic]
