Boil on the bum I betFace-Ache upped an left earlier half way through the working day. Dunno if he's coming back or not.
I imagine so, particularly if you've had something to do with (Molecular) Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Biophysics etc.For biology majors too?
I'll even learn to spreche ze Deutsche!
Hmm... are you good with cocktail sauce and toast?Lobster
What fields are you looking in? You've got some sort of film degree, right?

FUCK THIS SHIT.
Dear NASA - would a dash cam be too hard? C'mon people!!!
Yep--film/political science. I'd prefer some kind of media relations/production assistant/videographer job that's mildly related to a film degree, but I've honestly been applying to anything that looks doable (and will pay enough to move out) at this point.
Unfortunately, I'm running into the same problem as Old Lace--most little secretary gigs know that I'll bolt the second something better comes along. The problem now, though, is that there's nothing better available to go to.
You do realise that these are the very words that make the blood of any man freeze instantaneously, don't you?guess what comes due in a couple months?
Hahahaha. Well, at least student loans seem less expensive than a kid!You do realise that these are the very words that make the blood of any man freeze instantaneously, don't you?

(not by much)
(FML)
My university completely screwed me, though. I can't afford to move to CA or NY. Even if I could at first, guess what comes due in a couple months?
Every now and then, if I see something out there that looks like it'd pay enough to compensate for it, I'll apply, but those seem to be few and far between.
Nah, not a dick question at all. Honestly, it's one more people should be asking.Not to be a dick, but in hindsight do you think attending such an expensive university was really in the cards when the entry level payment for your field is sparse to say the least, especially if you are paying for it yourself.

I didn't want to go to school in WA, and at the time, Baylor (with financial aid figured in) cost a lot less than any of the other schools (with financial aid figured in). Plus, I started out pre-law and figured I'd be able to pay it back.
If I had it all to do over again, I'd have probably ended up at UT. I liked Baylor's film and poli sci departments, but by the time I realized that I'd be a much happier person playing with cameras than going to law school, I was too far along to really transfer anywhere and come out ahead. Plus, I didn't expect the massive downtime between uni and, well...is there any work out there that I'm not written off as "overqualified" for? I saw somewhere the other day that 85% of new grads get stuck living at home if they're not postponing everything with grad school. WTF? How did it get this bad?
I don't need a lot of money to be happy, but I at least need to be able to pay for things and GTFO here.
Someone needs to speak at BU's Welcome Week and let everyone know that unless things improve jerb-wise, it's a trap.
I guess the one good thing is that people seem impressed that I graduated with a double-major from Baylor 'round here, but none of those people seem to be actually hiring. Arrgh.

The lab language would probably be English anyway.
Well, good luck! If you want to work for a company rather than a research institute, there's a large amount of small to mid-size specialist companies that'll give you a lot more job satisfaction (and often better salaries and benefits as well) than large, "process-driven" (i.e. red-taped to suffocation) corporations.I worked at a Microbiology lab for 2 years and 1 year in a Molecular Biology lab while working on my thesis.
But seriously, I will take a look at my options. Never considered Germany before.
