I know this is sort of vague but any information whatsoever that I couldn't glean off of their website would be much appreciated...

The only adverts I see on the subway say something to the effect of

"trabajo para los que no hablan ingles - $ 10 estadounidense cada hora"

and i get that fuzzy feeling that i've done something right.

hahaha

I used to work on this floor in Houston, this is pretty mild considering their usual random shenanigans: playing football between the desks, standing up and clapping at random in the "hercules! hercules!" fashion (though in retrospect that was probably intended to wake up this guy)

@ GAnalayst

i wouldn't agree, but that guy in the back laughing is gorgeous in person.

Dude in the back, if you're reading this: I had a silent crush on you for like 4 months. There I said it.

@ 2pm, bullshit, the pressures faced by our generation to compete are in my opinion unrivaled. I recall being on vacation abroad with my parents in 6th grade, studying for the SAT's that would come 5 years later. It simply wasn't an option not to be the best, and still isn't. It makes the temptation to go off the deep end that much more compelling- a stress that I sincerely doubt your generation faced given that, as Ham noted, it was still possible to live in a city like new york or send your children to school on a piddly salary.

@ 3:43 really well, not surprisingly considering aforementioned nerd behavior

@ 3:41- spoiled/coddled is one thing, apathetic to certain topics is another. We may not be marching in the streets practicing free love and getting high but that doesn't justify your prior statement either.

@ 3:51, you're right, but i do think the environment has changed and certain schools/industries/whatever just weren't as oversatured as they are now- just my 2 cents.

@ BB thank you, I wasn't the only one who took them early!

For the record I wasn't forced to study, I did so because I wanted to make the most of what was given to me. No complaints whatsoever about the path I've chosen, but I'm not going to let some ageing hippy tell me I can't read either...

@ 4:43 I don't comprehend why you think it's silly to want success and a comfortable life. I don't feel the need to qualify them to a total stranger.
