Talking Get a Job!

Let me start by saying i'm in no way trying to flame or insult any of my fellow guild wars addicts. I myself have been playing since december 2006 and have loged over a total of 2000 hours. Never the less i manage to combine my addiction with a fulltime proper job.

I often login to guru and checkout the new posts; and i must admit also in the boses time.

I notice that some names apear over and over again in a wide variety of threads.

Do those people have jobs; and if so what is your profession?

Since is started this thread i'll go first:

I'm an md by profession.

Now before the moderator closes this thread i'll make a sugestion to those who at the moment are without a job: Get a job!

Good idea. Brb, I have to go get a job. Wonder why I hadn't thought of it before you made the suggestion.

I'm a full-time student (doing my masters), work 5 days a week, but stay up late. I'm usually on the forum's if I've got half an hour to spare, or right before bed, and I usually play between 8pm and midnight.

I'm going to treat this more as a discussion than a suggestion. "Get a job" isn't a GW-related suggestion...so...

Moved to Riverside.

Also, I'm a Quantity Surveyor. I hold down a full time job, fuel my GW addiction, and moderate Sardelac. I'm recently married, though rarely get to see my wife due to our work locations. When she's around my GW playtime decreases somewhat - I have better things to do...(or so I'm told)...

I need a job, I want a job....but it seams I just can't have a job


Money does keep falling my way via lots and lots of temp work but its getting much harder to keep my head above water.

Generally when I am on my computer its to First: look up job web listings and send out resume/make phone calls.
Second: look on Guru for reasons to post some usefull info or just my over rated opinion.
Third: log into GW and see if any of my guildies are online and in need of a hand.

Life goes on.

Graphic designer. I do a lot for the web sometimes, so always have a browser open, either from home or from work, and can post here on and off all day while working if I feel like it. Suppose it depends. Lately I have just been lurking.

'Get a job' isn't GW related, moved again to OT.

Some people log in at work yeah, who knows if they work though.

For me, you will always see me online on guru no matter what, because I never turn my browser off, and guru is always up, along with a couple of other tabs that I use daily. And at the moment I don't have a job, that pays that is. Basically all I do is sit at home and do housework for now, cleaning non stop and other things of that sort, so basically I'm always here at some point one way or another.

Full time student. And since I do not have any courses at this moment, and I am waiting for my practical training to start, yes, I do have a lot of time to spend on here
