Trying to find a job outside of the lab....it's fucking hard. I want to work at some trendy clothing store with a killer discount where all I have to do is tidy everything and tell all the girls who come in how fabulous they look, each with a unique but still feigned air of earnst.
But no. Not I have no experience. Well true I answered phones true I handle sales and true I've head projects... But hanging my LaTeXed resume to a store clerk feels fruitless. Who gives a shit if I know what an FPGA is if I haven't touched a cash register.
Fuck I just need a job. I don't believe the job application charade works... never has for me. I had to start my own fucking company to get someone [other than MIT] to hire me, and they STILL don't pay me enough.
I need an easy job that pays alot: STAT
