What is your occupation? What do you do for a living?

[BlackIce]

Yeah, go have to get your ECE diploma from college. It's a 2 year program, pretty easy. But that allows you to work with babies 3 months- 10 years old. So, if you end up working with a younger, or older, age group you wouldn't have to worry about potty training. :bang

lol, it's fun though. You definately have to LOVE kids to do it everyday.

i donno if its only me noticing this, but at my college its all beautiful girls taking that program! i dont mind kids but only ages 4-7 cuz those kids are usually cute and funny, skip 8-11 cuz those kids are usually annoying, 12+ easier to talk to and goof around with. i would love to take ECE but i donno if i could do it for a living, but eventually i will have to wen i have my own kids :P

My name is already attached to a lot of stuff that gets sent out anyway. so if i did need to stamp it, i feel it's not that much of a change in my mind. just try not to eff up! hahaha.....

the worst thing about getting that stamp is that you are no longer eligible for overtime pay according to law.
WTF!
well, not that i'm getting OT pay anyway............ well, sometimes i do.
speaking of pay.

Yaaaaa pay week! My pay cheque is going straight into the bank. I'm on a serious mission to purchase a house. I'll start looking at the beginning of next year.

I never get overtime (not now anyways) so it doesn't matter to me. You still have that massive accumulation of vacation hours? Or you use it up for your snowboarding trip?

house buying! that's awesome! My pay has been going right out the door for the last couple of months to pay off those trips i've been taking as well as closing costs and furnishing costs of my condo. I'm down to 3 weeks vacation now! And my 2 weeks in Japan are fast approaching too. I feel so.... inadequate in vacation hours. even though after taking 5 weeks of vacation in the last 3 months i'll still have about 1.5 left! BOOYAKA!

We design telecom networks for pretty much all of the telecom companies out there (in Ontario and other parts of the country).. Prestige Worldwide is more on the fun side.. :) I wish to be part of it.. Maybe I'll ask Will Ferrell and John Reilly if they're hiring or something.. Hahaha!!

As of today, I officially work for Prestige Telecom. Thanks to this posting, I googled what Prestige was, and found out to my surprise that they were hiring. I got a position at the Oakville location as an Admin Assistant to the Engineering Manager and other staff within the Engineering Department.
So far, love the people that I work with!
Great friendly atmosphere. They definetly work hard, which I greatly admire.

Thanks fellow colleague! It's cause of you that I pretty much found out about this company! So thanks!!! :thumbsup
The Oakville location is great. I was being calling "new girl" (BAHAHA) by one person until I said "Hi my names Lizz" and then everyone picked up on my name and were really friendly!
But it's a very professional atmosphere as well as tremendously welcoming. Never felt more comfortable before in a job! Everyone helped me out when they saw I was struggling at times.
It would be great to work at Mississauga branch though. I live in Brampton and the drive to Oakville is killer on gas! Yikes! Time will prevail!

Good that you're liking it so far.. :) Yup, It's a great place to work and gain experience. I was speaking to our engineer in the Markham office and he did say that people here are "too nice." He mentioned that in his previous jobs, people are swearing and yelling at people. I'm glad that it's not the case here. :) By the way, how many members are in the engineering department over there??

Just give it a couple of months until your evaluation period's done, then you can always request a transfer. Although, I should say, the Mississauga office is sort of like a warehouse turned to an office. :chuckle But still, very nice people, I use to work with a few of them there. :)

Anyway, good luck and I hope to see you in company gatherings.. I believe there will be one this summer. Some kind of a picnic with raffles and stuff.. :) :) :)

I've always had trouble deciding what I want to pursue. My plan had always been to continue my education but I found it impossible to pick one direction. Next thing you know it's almost 10 years later and I'm still in the same situation.

Some people may tell you to "just take something instead of hesitating forever." Although this statement has some merit, I know far too many people who rushed into an education program only to switch it again and again and, sometimes, not even completing any. Following on what n00bMeiSter noted, try to take something that can lead to a job that you won't hate... or that you can love, if possible.

some people will take three steps walking up a flight of stairs. others including myself will take one at a time. don't be discouraged that you're not going up as fast, but be encouraged that you are walking up. the stairs in your life could represent anything from school, occupation, and even cars. Just find your pace...

[loki]

totally agree (except for the cars part, even tho this is a car forum, and I love modding, I don't consider cars a goal...)

you're taking a few steps backwards in order to be able to keep going to end up where you want. No point on getting somewhere quickly if you're not happy when you get there.

at 27 you have your whole life ahead of you, and it's way easier to change your path now compared to a few years down the road where other commitments start to really get in the way (unless you have a wife, kids, dog, house etc. now in which case yeh it's hard...)
