Your job sucks

Postby Colonel Ingus » Mon Jun 14, 2004 4:29 pm

What do you do for a living?

ALL THE NEWS THAT'S FARK

...

The site pays for itself with advertising; his wife takes care of Fark's finances. Curtis starts blogging at 7:30 a.m. and is usually done by 9 a.m. The links are timed to appear throughout the day to give the impression that Curtis is hard at work. In fact, he says, "you'll find me in sports bars most of the day."

If he makes 1 cent for every visitor, he makes $50,000 a month doing next to nothing.

I've got one of those awsome jobs too. Consultant. We don't make anything so I don't actually have a physical product to sell. Essentially I am selling myself to a client that, since they rarely listen to advice, will basically have their way with me and if I am lucky pay me at the end of the day for my services.....hey, come to think of it I have heard that job description before......

Hey, I'm a consultant too!

Semantically, "to consult" comes from "to con" and "to insult".
