Currently, I work in "Product Protection," meaning I wander through Macy's until I see or am informed by our camera crew that someone looks like they're stealing. Then I stealthily approach them and we bring them into custody. Sometimes people claw and punch and sprint and we literally have to tackle them until security arrives. It's not a good job, especially given that I'm 95 pounds. ><
I hope to bankroll my education through this, though, so one day I can get my JD, run a practice, and eventually make judge. :)

I've got some cool job offers to pick from after I graduate. The kind of stuff that people don't believe is possible. Engineer comes closest to that.

Yeah, I'm barely passing class, but it seems that being the only person at my level of competence in my country without a scholarship has its perks. The horrible brain drain in Malaysia has affected me positively.

Currently an information technology student. I live with my parents and they pay everything. After I graduate I will be an IT-salesman, a remote assistant or in information services of some silly company.

I've always wanted to be a pilot, not one of those 747 flying pilots but more like a charter pilot flying prop planes and shit. Jets suck.

So, pretty self-explanatory, what are you occupations/hopeful occupations? I'm personally planning to go to Cornell and get into architecture, possibly historical architecture (repair and reconstruction, maybe in Prague, that would be cool! :D).

You should consider NC State. They have a highly-considered School of Design, with a satellite program in conjunction with Charles University in Prague. And it's got a lot of pairings with NC State's materials science departments, so you could build things with nanomaterials and whatnot.



As for myself, let's call it "Information Services" and leave it at that.

You forgot Custodian lulz.

I mean it's nothing to brag about, but I get paid to work out, and nearly all of it is time I can use to think. It's the perfect job for me, mind body and spirit. Weird, huh? No one's going to pay me to tinker with neural network simulations in the ways that I want, I could be arsed to spend another four years jumping through hoops just to work on someone else's research for most of my life, and I probably won't die of heart disease at 35 despite the fact that I sit on my ass all day programming and writing.

Bonus: No matter how shitty the country gets, there will always be trash to pick up and office workers to make fun of.

Thank you, I'll be sure to look into that. :D

And there are two judges on here??? Wow!!! (The lawyers aren't so surprising, and I come from a family of lawyers so I should probably be a lawyer by default anyway.) I also appear to be the only architect. This makes me sad.
