I work at a one of the top-ten medical centers in the country. I help maintain network functionality pretty much as well as do a lot of planning for floors. Lately I been doing a lot of desktop work and crap because of staffing issues...

I live 1.5 miles way, and I drive to and from work. I have garage parking at work with full in and out priveleges (rare in SF). I don't get paid as well as private sector monkeys, however this job is stable and will always be here. This job gives me a lot of time to do my own things errands etc. I can pretty much leave and come back whenever I want. My bosses' office is about 3 miles away and they rarely come here. I am supposed to start work at 7 and end at 3:30, but I rarely come in before 8. I take 1.5 hour lunches with no remorse.

Lately, it's been pretty busy and I've been busting my ass a lot, but that's okay. Kind of a challenge to juggle a lot of things that go on here...

I work in Foster City doing tech support for the Sony Playstation. The pay is ok (could be better), but it does pay the bills and the S2k for that matter. I commute about 20 minutes back and forth which isn't too bad, especially driving top down on highway 280 =). I guess I'm just lucky to have a job during this crappy economic time period.

Yeah, seriously. I get the same kind of emails everyday. But yeah, I pretty much just sit here. And since this semester, they made the login passwords our bearfacts password and there's a link on the desktop that they can go to to add paper, we pretty much don't have to do anything else.

What year did you graduate??

I work at a CPA firm in Napa. I'm the only CPA there. In fact, I'm the ONLY person there. I do everything from taxes to taking out the trash.
Busy first 6 months, relaxed the second six months.
I love being my own boss, and the government makes sure I'll always have a job. Unless they do away with taxes. Yeah, right.
