I’ve always wondered what jobs people have on here. Anyone care to share?

 

I finally found a job at surveyor's office last week.

 

I should start working in a couple of weeks, but that's all assuming we stay corona-free and the market doesn't completely crash by then... So yeah... :p

I'm currently studying tourism (after studying English for 3 years and then working for 2 years at a gas station because I didn't know what to do after my diploma :lol: I'm still not sure tourism is what I want to do though, so... :dunno:)

None since my project at the City Archive ran out of money (well, there's a bit, but not enough to pay a full-time employee) just before christmas.

Same, though I’m still a student, and I have TM as a side gig so...not really “unemployed” then.

I always thought about studying tourism, and I tested very well into the that category. However, it came down to Psychology and Communication Studies for me in the end. There’s also still a chance I might do some Marketing studies as well.

Test administrator at Pearson VUE :p 

https://home.pearsonvue.com/

 

Although that's because the place where I study has an exam center for people to easily make exams there, so instead of a paid job for me it's mostly an excellent opportunity to study all day and in the meantime check people in and out for their exams and pay attention they're not cheating or something.

 

Pretty soon it's possibly going to move to something more like a real 3-month traineeship somewhere, potentially as a step to working there, in the field of system administration.

Is there a field you think you can not do? :p

      Fencing FIE World Cup 2024 - 2025

      I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.

      Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't.

      Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
