I'm doing okay! Lacking in the job department, but otherwise fine. :X

Eli, I'm sure you'll find something soon enough. Where I'm at it seems like everyone is hiring.

Everyone here is hiring as well. But the catch is that they want someone with experience.

Maybe I should also clarify. She's the manager of the marketing department, so she's technically like my supervisor I guess. And the stuff that she talks about is work stuff, just redundant and time-wasting hand holding, etc. So it's kind of hard to tell her to politely fuck off besides asking her to just leave me be and let me do the work, which so far she hasn't gotten the hints on.

Hmm, that is a bit different. Let her know that you're grateful for her reminder but you need to get to your desk so you can start on the work???

XD Good luck with that then. My boss and I usually end up talking about old shows/movies/books.

there are a few people in my workplace that just don't know how to stop talking/let you speak, but luckily the managers are quick about their forced-no-response-allowed monologues. XD Just tell you something 'important', smile big and fake, and hustle away

salvete, I'm a massage therapist .. I get paid on commission to give custom massages for mostly medical issues and sports injuries, but a lot of relaxation as well

Oh wow, you must be so strong! I always had the impression that massage therapists have super stamina.

I'm sure you have to be really careful not to hurt yourself as well. I heard that constantly doing massage on others can really work a number on your own body.

*nods* that makes sense. I guess there's some training involved that would help with that. I'm thinking it's like when you go to the gym and lift weights, there is a specific posture you need to employ in order to avoid injury.

Yeah, I'm sure there's a lot of that in training for that sort of job.

Lots of jobs require physical training.
Different parks offer different activities so even being an education ranger I'll probably have to get rock climbing certs, spelunking certs, diving certs. All depends on the park. :P

Ah, you're right :) I was thinking maybe police officers and firefighters, but I'm not sure.

They have to go through crazy physical training!! They have to be able to carry all their gear plus a person if necessary. And stamina training.
