I work in an office, for a special needs adaptive technology company. I work at the front desk so I guess I’m reception, plus I answer all the phones. I do marketing as well, and basically the work everyone else doesn’t wanna do, but i spend half my time bored and doing nothing. I make my own hours and come in when I want, it's pretty sweet. I only do this for the summers, the rest of the year I'm an unemployed student.

I also tape 3 year olds and their mothers looking at a picture book and playing with toys, then transcribe the tapes and code them for valuable information that may benefit the understanding of language acquisition in young children
aka: I work in a psychology lab
HARDCORE!!!

I work at a record store (FYE). It's a good job. One bad thing though, I've only seen one person (other than myself) looking for/asking for/looking at/ and or buying OLP "Live" since it came out :neutral:
