I will still be working of course, and right now I am just finishing up a computer certification so I can fix peoples *cough* "broken" computers. (Honestly, do you know just how tough it is to really BREAK one of these things?)

No one can say we're a lazy lot with any truth.

I'm the laziest bastard you'll ever meet. If a billion dollars were dropped on my lap tomorrow I'd never lift a finger for the rest of my life.

Possibly because I've actually done work so hard most people would refuse to do it at any price, I appreciate the value of sitting on my lazy ass as often as possible.

>> I've also had one of those "legal but not socially acceptable" jobs. <<
What, you worked in politics?

I'm curious to see what jobs the members of the Church of Satan (and others) have, or your means of supporting yourself. Just curious about the diversity of jobs.

I think it's important for Satanists to not lose sight that what one does for money is simply a tool to get you where you want to go, make the best of what you have, and always desire more.

My rise to power as the first Gigolo/Governor of Colorado is the stuff of legend and most here have heard it before, but I suppose I can recount it for any newcomers.

It began, as so many tales of this sort do, with the ritual removal of my toenails in 1974. This not only marked my acceptance into the Royal Family of Colorado, but the dawn of an enlightenment to the hardships of the townspeople with whom I ventured on Walkabout. They told me their stories as we hiked through the Puma Hills and I began to see a great breach between the workers of the state and the leaders like my parents. Though I could have taken my rightful place as the Surprefect of Denver under their auspices, I instead chose to renounce the title I'd earned by blood alone and take upon myself the life of a Yak Herder.

For 7 years I toiled under the hot Colorado sun and the deep tan which covers my skin to this date earned me my nickname "Josh". It was under this name I was first approached by the freedom fighters of the Platte who related their sufferings under various local regimes including that of my brother Zedarian, who had murdered my parents to seize their meager empire and enslaved the serfs of Cherry Hills and Speer Blvd.

I felt a rage like nothing I'd ever felt before. I resolved on that day to abandon my simple life in the mountains and to take vengeance upon my brother, and on his hierodule Marilyn Musgrave. In the years that followed I raised an army, beginning with the freedom fighters and eventually encompassing Forts Carson and Collins as well as the 2nd Royal Infantry Division of CU Boulder. It was with this force that I stormed the capital, beheaded my sibling and ushered in a new era of prosperity for the state of Colorado.

And so today it is my humble duty to serve the people as their governor and any female dignitaries as their concubine. I am most proud of my legislation to free the slaves, to guarantee food for all who possess the extra virgin olive oil to cook it, to establish a cheese-making college which any citizen can attend without tuition; and of my sexual services to foreign dignitaries including Helen Thomas, Michelle Obama and Kofi Annan, who I learned this very month was not female.

You can see me here at the annual break-dancing session of the Colorado State Senate (2nd from right, standing), which sadly ended in a filibuster:

In reality, my job is in a paperwork phase and I'm trying to avoid doing it by writing some weird shit online.

I think that most people work because they have to. And, though you can like what you do, still you must put up with unhealthy rivalry, intrigues, jealousy, gossip and plain idiocy.

Although some politicians and film stars in Poland say they love their jobs (they do not have to do much)

(On a side note, if you've never worked nights, I suggest you try it, should the opportunity arise. Really increases your ability to avoid stupid people and employer BS. You just get to do your work, and leave. Much less hassle (in a CNA setting, anyway).

I was under the impression that to succeed in either line of work you actually had to put in more than a full weeks work to succeed in either profession.

But please come here, come to Warsaw. See our hardworking leaders, watch our films (few of them are good), not to mention our beautiful soap operas.

I get to paint giant cartoon characters all day. I was painting jungle animals today, and tomorrow I must paint Ben 10 and some of his monstrous incarnations.

I guess what I am saying is that, with enough hard work and perseverance, it is possible to advance in life and achieve your dreams.

I made a decision to go for personal happiness instead of looking successful.

I did train for a profession, and, after a short while I came into my own and realized that I had made a terrible mistake.

she has someone who has a meal waiting for her every night, when she comes home. She also has someone who is not burdened with residual stress from work, and can give his undivided attention to her when she needs to get things off her chest.

I just love cooking, I love preparing dinner, and I love shopping for food in many different places to find special food. The passion I have for food is the same passion I have for my art, I guess it's the lioness in me

Unfortunatly I got let go from both haha.

I get that. We've changed our grocery buying routine. We used to get groceries once a week. Over time, I have felt the need to stop at a market on the way home from work. It helps me chill, and is a nice way to begin my evening. Now, we shop for essentials every couple of weeks, and I get the ingredients for the evening meal the day of. Everything is as fresh as I can make it. I find it against my religion to get anything already packaged. Fresh herbs...fresh vegetables...home made sauces, dressings and condiments as much as possible. There is no better way to get over any problem than to chop the veggies. Okay...there is this ONE thing...but that would be even more off topic than this post.

For the most part, your job will not define who you are no more than the soda you drink. I have held a number of interesting jobs, but details about my personal life is none of anyone's business. I am a Satanist. That says it all.



Gee, I wonder why?

I am currently unemployed for now although it is not for the lack of laziness. I write and have a major project in the works though.
