need really really bad advice - Page 2

Get a tech journalism degree, become a freelance writer. When contracts become insufficient for maintaining a suitable income, go to work for a temp agency that gives you assignments in the tech industry. Bonus points for assignments at formerly powerhouse companies that dangle the prospect of permanent employment in front of you while constantly jerking it away because of "headcount" issues.

Not that I have any personal experience with this.

Have you joined the teachers' union yet, Griff? If not, do that.

Get knocked up by a man you are forced to marry. Get the shit beat out of you for a little over 2 years and then get dumped for a coworker, then a year after the divorce he'll murder your new fiancee (that you originally left 5 years before to marry the asshole that beat you.)

OnyxCougar · 02-13-2004, 10:57 PM

oh wait...griff is a guy. Never Mind.

I hear there are a lot of new IPOs of dotcoms coming onto the stock market. Put all of your money into one of them, the one with no discernable product or profits.

elSicomoro · 02-13-2004, 11:47 PM

Put all your savings into airline stock.

Go get a bachelors degree in art history.

Isolate yourself from the majority of the world, buy a mandolin and drink adult beverages as you post stinging commentary of the American political system.

No wait.....that's what you do now. Nevermind.

Shave your head but grow a Taliban beard, caress a gun 24 hours a day and make friends with a mouse.

mrnoodle · 02-14-2004, 01:10 AM

Let someone talk you into selling Amway (or whatever the fk they call it now). Cut yourself every time you don't close a sale. If you do manage to sucker someone, you get to stitch up one of your cuts.

This is the most addictive site I have ever been to. And I'm an addiction-friendly type. Damn you, cellar.org
