EnigmaEnigma Member UncommonPosts: 11,384

well, I finally walked into my place of employment and walked right back out.  I couldn't handle it anymore. I got a 60 day severence pay package and my former job will be packing everything and moving me and my family anywhere in the U.S. for free.

So besically Im bored as heck, and I wanna try out some different things to do while I'm on this two month vacation. Sooooooo, what should I do in terms of what game should I buy and try until November?

Anyways....let's play a little game.  Let's see who can guess what my former job was lol.

    i voted bartender because... well... you mentioned you walked in and walked right out. I don't think that anyone willing to undertake much of an education to become a nurse or be placed in a technical position is just going to walk right out of that hard-earned education. i could be wrong though. image probably am, specifically.

    4. result was that adelphia is an ISp company image

    Well considering most places don't provide a severence pay when you quit, I am guessing that they had "other arrangements to benefit both parties". image  Please tell!

    Of course he was a Priest. Not only do I remember him mentioning he was a priest before, but the whole thing of not just saying he was a priest before, but the whole thing of he seemed specific, hence, "Anglican".

    Anyhow, curious, whyd ya quit?

    Politics, trying to act perfect in front of the congregation or they'll lynch me, tired of burying dead people (usually they're dead), tired of marrying people when you know darn well they wont last longer than 12 weeks.

    lol...that among many other things.

    Being a priest is hard work...and I no longer have the patience for it...not that I am giving up my beliefs...but turning my collar so to speak. lol

    Plus, I hated wearing the Cassock every Sunday and all the teenagers point and yell "look look, its NEO!!!!!!!!"

    speaking of priest, we just had the only one in our town shipped back to the Phillipines, because he drove a 14 yearold girl to Vancouver (4 hour drives) and dropped her off then left for seattle.

    Shes back now, but still, it was a surreal situation in my little hick town
    (those in BC might have seen it on BCTV morning news on global, lol its our claim to fame =p)

    Hey congratulations on leaving the priesthood.

    Now just drop all of those heretical teachings and traditions of men, get born again, become an independent fundamental baptist and then you will be ok in my book LOL.

    Anyways I think the whole neo outfit would be the only saving grace of that job (no pun intended).

    I would cut my hair like his and wear black shades too just for grins and giggles.

    My guess was you worked for soe because on your pic about the commador 64 you said that pic can be found on the first page of their gallery which was not. I've been following the game forever and never seen that pic before :)


    I'm gonna be leaving my old job too soon I think and spent the winter on UI and work on music...and well eq2. Then I figure if things don't go well with my music i'll go back to school maybe in the spring :)

    EDIT.....or become a buddhist monk :)

    My guess before reading your choices was that you work for the feds...

     

    None of the option was working for the feds.

     

    I then read and I pick priest but I was unsure, I doubt that any of the other job will be doing what the church did for you when you leave, but again, I was pretty doubtfull.

     

    Anyway, gratz walking away from a vocation!  I think everyone in the world should walk away from vocations in order to do professions, the conditions of the peoples would improve...

     

    I was a highschool teacher and I stop teaching 3 years ago, cant take the schoolboard ***** anymore...of course I was teaching in French with such a poor Frenglish writting. :)

     

    Whatever job you will do now, just dont pick another vocation, get a profession!  *grin*

     

    Althought...hmmm...maybe we can start a religious school with restricted personal that play MMORPG(s)?  (I can see the association of Mothers against bla bla bla bumping around in the first week)   image

     

    You dont want to know how most conventional teachers react when they know you play Everquest for a long time!  image   I dont want to imagine the priests who try to understand you play a cleric that follow Innoruuk in a game full of kids!!!  I can summon an image of an older priest that try to convince the hierarchy to do an exorcist on you....image

    oh another reason why I think your job was for soe is because in your sig on the right, i've never seen that pic before either. Sure you could be in beta but thats pretty nice armour to be wearing between levels 1-9 :)...maybe i'm totally off but thats my guess....if you are before you quit can you invite me into beta? ::::31::
