College studen on the fast trek to professional hobo

See, I can't spell! ;p

Seriously, just a college student going for graphic design.

Hey! College student in graphic design...that's what I do!

Where do you go to school? I go to Illinois State.

I go to HCC... don't laugh at me...

HCC? Heartland?

Houston

Ohhh..ok. I thought you were naming a college that is in the same town as my school. Same acronym.

Anyway, have fun with that graphic design stuff...I know I love it!

Too bad I can't ever find work doing it... IE: becoming a hobo

I can do 3d desgin, 2d design, advertising, website design, computer repair, and digital publishing. Not to mention I can type 70 WPM, have experience in computers/networks, and can use almost all microsoft office products... And yet I spend about 20 hours a week looking for jobs unsuccessfully, I never even get interviewed

That's weird, though I think some of my peers have been having a hard time finding jobs as well. They're all getting ready to graduate and can't find anything. I'm gonna go to grad school, so I'm just delaying the inevitable.

...or I'll become a professor and make no money that way too. *shrug* That's what we art majors get for being....well, art majors.

I too am attending HCC...

just wanted to chime in...

-long time reader, 3rd time posting?

Thats cool, maybe we should meet up sometime

I'm a freshman at the University of New Haven. I'm studying to be a computer engineer.

Justyn Miller
Intense Herpetoculture

Currently I am a US Army Ranger Instructor in the FL phase of Ranger School, teaching combat operations and survival in a costal swamp environment. Recently since breakiing my pelvis on a parachute jump I have been assigned to the US Army Snake Team. We teach classes on the venomous snakes found here in the US and elsewhere. To military personnel, as well as the general public(boy scouts, girl scouts, etc.)We also help zoo keepers get experience with venomous reptiles. That's my day job, at night I am working on my MCSE certification, so that when I possibly retire in 2 years (the big 20) I will be able to be a contributing member of society...lol. If I can get it done before I rotate back to Spec Ops and Iraq.

Justyn and Alice I want your jobs...lol

Day time: Fiber optic tech.... Because of me you have high speed internet, digital cable, and free long distance calls......LOL....... Unfortunately I am not "working" in the biology field anymore....... Not enough money in what I wanted to do..... I did however work in 2 zoos...... I was the head of the venomous reptile house in one of them for 6 years..... I also breed venomous snakes and I am currently working with 20 species of scorpion and obviously a few leopard geckos...... It helps to pay a few bills.....

So Gab, can I blame you when my cable/DSL is slow?

Well, I was a Chemical Engineer for 26 years before I became disabled with a serious neuroimmune disease as well as spinal spodylosis. Now, I am a leopard gecko breeder (not a whole lot of profit, it just makes my life more meaningful) as well as a minister. I am not a pastor at my church, but I do a lot of work in grief recovery there as well a hospital chaplain with chronically and terminally ill patients and their families. I also do lots of weddings and memorial services when my health will allow it.
