Depends on the day. If the market is rallying (prices are up) or selling off (prices are down) it is the very best job in the world. When the market is flat (prices unchanged), I want to hang myself. How's that for an answer? :erm :nut

the job i have now is slightly better than the one i had a few months ago, only becaue of the pay difference. however, i'm not wanting it to consume my soul, and if i'm there for 5 more years, and nothing's changed, then i'll be really pissed. i'll staple down the owner's feet to the concrete floor, and punch him in the face with a cactus untill something changes, that goes for his sister too.

I don't know....some aspects of my job I do like and some I don't but in general I like my job. Most of the time is fairly non-eventful and boring but occassionaly something interesting or at least amusing does happen.

Like yesterday I got to see a semi completely run down a fence on company property while making a right turn....it was amusing for about 5 minutes. My favorite thing to see is when certain haughty "I'm too good for you" individuals find out they no longer have a job and have to pack thier stuff and get out...the look on thier face is....priceless. Another thing that amusing the hell of me is theres always a few "administrative assistants" working here that think its their job to "monitor" what the security department does. What they don't realize is that the constant complaints about non-issue or minor issues things thats out of the realm of thier responsibility gets them "black listed" so to speak, for terminatation when the usual department budget cuts come around....the scary part is that I've seen people get fired for things that they normally wouldn't only because they were on the "black list". At first I didn't take this job that seriously, but after working her for awhile and seeing how things really work behind the scenes and out of public eye I've changed my attitude....no one is really safe from them.

I have watched Win Ben Stein's Money. And you are correct, he is neither boring nor mediocre, having gotten himself a law degree. But he made a pretty good career out of acting boring and mediocre in the 80s, and still gets paid to do it for those ridiculous eye drop commercials.

Yeah, I'm no Ben Stein.
