[quote name='guinaevere']I totally hear ya.
Thankfully I haven't put that much time into it (mostly because I've been so blasted busy with real Christmas shopping (ie, not for me) and all that. But I'd say over the past three or four days I've spent about six hours total driving simply going out of my way to scout Kmarts for games I can't not buy at their clearance prices, for games to trade into Rhino, and for driving way the heck out there to actually trade at the two Rhinos which are less than 100 miles from here.
Any career prospects, Roufuss?[/QUOTE]
I'm about to get a life ban from Rhino, I think... they are starting to realize I'm dumping the same two games over and over and over.
I need Tiger Woods 2007 like you wouldn't believe, so tommorrow morning when the employees are different, I'm dumping the same two games again.
Career prospects as in, a real career? I want to do criminal Psychology, but I have a long ways to go before getting a degree in anything. A friend of mine who is seeing a court appointed therapist now mentioned that his Dr. really needs people to work in his office, and that his Dr. really likes him and he'll put it in a really good word for me.
Right now, anything that is a stable M-F job, hopefullly an office of some sort, is good enough for me. I've been using Ebay to get by while I busted my ass in school these last few months, and I think it's finally paying off.
The problem is, EVERYONE is doing Ebay these days and it's starting to be a mental burden and more trouble than it's worth always having to be one step ahead of everyone. Of course, it's also good so I can help my friends get awesome deals on shit... one of my friends flipped out when I got her Fatal Frame 3 for $10 since she loves the series.
But career goals... I think I've got a long ways to go still before I can have a career. I'm just happy that, for once, I'm focused and seem to be on the right path.
