Need an awesome career

[Queuing]

Well I always thought a WWE Referee would be a hilarious job. All you have to do is be able to count to 3 once at the right time and make sure you are completely unobservant.

Plus you could get friends to be WWE superstars and all make a video together, rather then all of you making a video each. Less work for all!

OK, I’ll come clean.

I am a teacher, but I teach … chess, computer games and roleplaying.

The last time there was an Internet poll on ‘most desirable job’, I came second to a woman who translated porn films.
That’s fair.

Every time you mention this, I am forced to remind myself that Dope rules forbid me to wish that you die in a fire.

So what do I do with my EET diploma these days? I write manuals.

Now there’s an exciting career: chasing down errant commas, arguing about grammar, and trying to sell Marketing on the necessity of hyphenating compound adjectives when they’ve already decided on the name of the product, and it’s unhyphenated… and unclear.

Basically, we write for clarity and ease of translation: precisely the opposite of marketers and political speechwriters.

Careful there, last time I explained something technical here, I got a warning to stop explaining things clearly. Apparently the American Association of Technical Writers doesn’t like it. They’re closer to you than to me and might know where to hire some good henchmen…

I think it was Popular Science that listed the 10 Worst Science Jobs. Among them was professional bull-semen collector. Really. I think that would make an excellent commercial.

A gentleman always comes in second to a lady.
