I'm ashamed to admit it, but I'm a receiving clerk at a local grocery store in my home town. School kicked me out because of money issues with 3 classes to go for a major in computer science: multimedia and a minor in "Emerging Media Digital Arts."
Worked in IT at the school for 3 years. But you can't be a student worker without taking classes.
Did my senior project (read capstone) for Mount Ashland Ski Resort. I built them a webpage that accesses a database that has data from ticket scans at the bottom of each lift before. People got scanned before they went up. The data calculated the amount of vertical feet they decended for a given day, month, or season. I was very proud of it. I had an in with the employers at the mountain and had a guarenteed job selling tickets. I'd work on their website and implement my own to their website, in my spare time. (Not to mention boarding during ride breaks and lunch. Free passes to any mountain in Oregon. It was going to be a dream season. But I'm cursed and it didn't snow that year. The mountain never opened. I had to return home and find the first job that fell in my lap.
Been at this store for a year and im scrapped my by. Student loans are on my back, I have nothing to show for it, and I'm working at a grocery store.
At least I have SK and my new girlfriend to keep me sane.
Things will turn around for me soon, I hope.
Hell, powerball is at 450 million. So here's to hoping.
Oh wait... Is this not for our entire life stories? Lol
