    another topic here everyone posts their ego and doesn't give a crap about what others say

    It's in the chit-chat, fun, and games section. What did you think was going to be here? Lighten up! :)

    I pay the bills for a local utility. It looks simple, but it's pretty involved. I'm four years away from retirement. (Yay me!) :glasses:

    I sit at a computer all day in my own office, wearing fuzzy slippers and tapping away. :bigsmile:

    At least you speak to the customers.
    The last time I returned something at a Walmart, the employee did not speak one single word to me during the entire return.
    Really.

    I work mostly as a writer and partly as a musician. I'm self-employed, so I dabble in other things – painting, jewelry-making, photography.
