So apparently I just landed myself the weirdest and easiest job ever. Didn’t even have to apply or anything; I got headhunted. And right out of university as well, after I got pretty average grades. It’s all the online gaming, I got distracted…it’s a long story. But anyway, I thought I’d be jumping around the place, trying to make my ordinary Melbourne IT course sound fantastic on my resume. Never mind!
But now I’m in the basement, almost bored out of my skull. I say ‘almost’ because I’m not supervised and can thus do whatever I want. That’s a lot of gaming, for the record, and I can even have the sound on because I’ve been doing the job for two weeks and unless I go up to the guys in the IT department, no one ever comes down to me. And what is this amazing job? Does it require all my IT expertise that I picked up during my course? Perhaps a little bit of software engineering? Not so far, no. My job: I look at a wall of blue buttons. As soon as one turns red, I press it. I barely even have to be looking in that direction, because it’s majorly obvious whenever one does so. It even flashes and everything if you leave it for a few seconds.
I don’t know, really. I’m getting paid stacks and I don’t feel like I’m contributing to Lawrence Corp all that much. When I asked my supervisor on the first day what the buttons do, he just laughed and said it was to do with security and it was really important that I press at the right time. And that’s…fine. Okay, look, I know I wasn’t the best student in my IT course, or the web design course before that, and then the game design course that I flunked out of after three weeks. I slacked off, but I still wanted to do something in IT. Many people would hear about my job and think it was the best thing ever. I’m not so sure.
