my new job

It's not the best job in the world, the pay's not as much as I'd like, and it's definitely not what I want to be doing but for right now it's great. :)
It's really nice to be working at a place that allows you some personal freedoms while at work- such as wearing what you want (within reason of course), you're allowed to surf the net a bit and you can answer your cell phone (during evening shifts/when it's slow). And as an added bonus I get along really well with everyone. :D


**edit- and even when I'm doing most of the call taking it's still pretty easy.

Sandra - I'm working for a taxi company taking calls. :) On the weekend graveyard shift we're way too busy to allow for any slacking. And it can get really stressful, but for the most part it's fine.

Exactly. After 60 days if I choose to stay then I become part of a union and the pay goes up $2.60. hehe

Even with skills and a Union you can get shit pay. She's answering Calls for $12 an hour...

I push-back fully loaded 777's and 747's and operate heavy equipment over 16 tons for $10.56...

Getting skills doesn't have much to do with it.

being a skilled worker and being in a union is counter productive.

No actually it's not. Union makes about $5/hour more than non union in construction.
