We had a different name for this kind of thread at another place that we all have been to, so we need a new clever name here. I hope that CB's British intellect and humour will come through because I am creatively tapped.
I will probably get a temp job for a few months until I go back to study again and am dreading it. I was making 3x the normal rate in the US for someone my age (also was spending more than anyone I know so it's not a brag really) and all I had to do was speak my native language (I did actually make an effort mind you, but I didn't have to because the teacher is always right in Russia). Has anyone gone from a nice job to a bad one? What about going from a very, very specialized field back to looking at all kinds of jobs? Does anyone have interesting periods of employment or non-employment on their resume that they know draws some attention?
@CB - Seriously, please come up with some new tradition for this thread here. I have no idea what to name it.
