I've always read your name as SiroMar, and it wasn't until very recently that I thought it has probably been Sir Omar the whole time -- glad to see that I was reading it right all this time.

That's why I clarified it. Several people asked. :D

I'm a high school recruiter for unnamed college. I cover Utah, Wyoming and Montana. Basically, I go around to different high schools and talk to the seniors about different careers, the school I represent, and areas of study offered at the school. It's not a bad gig and I feel I got really lucky, plus, they're going to pay for grad-school which I'll start in September or so. Right now I'm looking to get my masters in Organizational Leadership. Anyone have any thoughts or opinions about this?

I posted this earlier in a thread, but dang, it was super hard to find a job here in Utah. The interview process was a joke. Just getting in for a interview was a battle. It's truly not all about what you know, but who you know. Start networking and stay thirsty, my friends.

Organizational theory was one of my favorite courses in college.

As long as you can keep your hands off the HS girls it sounds like a decent gig.

Well hell, if you CAN'T keep you hands off HS girls it probably an even better gig, as long as you don't care about staying married.

Being serious? Not poking fun, I just frequently shop there. Used to live in the apartments to the East and would always just walk and hop over the fence.

I used to live in those apartments as well. Good times!

I spent most of my adult life being a legal secretary in SLC, which was a good gig. Due to health issues, I'm now working for half the money as an accounting clerk. It works well with my physical limitations and I like the work and my co-workers. Money and benefits stink, but you can't have everything, I guess.

Is anyone in the marketing sector? My degree is in marketing and I'm just seeing now that maybe I didn't sign up for what I think I did.
 
I'm a graphic artist (the whole art dept, really) at a small clothing company for boys. My boss thinks I'm the greatest and treats me well. I telecommute quite a bit and I can do as much side work as I want. I won't get rich working there, but my satisfaction and happiness is off the charts.

I don't even know where to start on this one... I'll just skip all the obvious questions and go to a comment: I have a buddy in Iraq doing contract work for the military. Tall and skinny, named Bates. Know him?
 
does he know me?

and there is no army left in iraq,,so no army contractors,,only private security companies,ammbasy personal,,oil companies,construction companies
 
Aybars, you are one of the most interesting people I have ever had the pleasure of speaking with (not in person, of course)
