    My desperate search for employment has lead me where I would've normally never go. I just posted my candidacy to work in a convenience store. We'll see what that'll do; maybe it'll be just as depicted in the movie Clerk. I liked that movie very much :p

    Well if you like people then it could be a good temporary job. At least you can socialize.

    Jobless here too. And I like people, but there are no convenience stores that are in need of new employees. :p

    I haven't seen Clerks, but according to that smiley it should be fun. :) Maybe I should apply for some night shifts in a supermarket: extend my life by a third, undress and paint young women and gain extra money. Watch Cashback for more details. :)
    Edit: Don't do that when at work. You'll probably find something that's NSFW.

    Well I got a job in art supplies sales so that goes along with my ultimate plan of living from being an artist. It is a retail job but at least I have a good discount on whatever I need and don't need.

    For the sake of argument, let's assume human cloning is possible and and widespread; is killing your clone murder or suicide ?

    Is killing your identical twin suicide? I don't see how killing a separate entity could ever amount to suicide :)

    So are you saying a clone isn't a person Flix? That would be murder. Who is to say that you would be a more valuable person than your clone?

    Hum... that was supposed to be a silly or a nonsensical question I never meant it to be serious; y'see I just watched the DS9 episode A man alone that more or less explored this issue.

    I'm just a huge trek fan. Heghlu' meH QaQ jajvam! :lol: :facepalm:

    I actually really enjoy my job. Comparing it to all the co-op/internships that at the time I thought were okay makes me realize they really weren't that interesting. By the end of the four month terms for each of those jobs I couldn't wait to get out of there, yet here I am now, six months in, and I still enjoy going to work every day.

    Wonder how much that will change in the 40+ years before retirement...

    Some high school acquaintances of mine were just on the show Tosh.0 and I seriously can't stop laughing.
