    Be careful with that! :laugh:

    Seriously though, I used to learn everything I could at a job. Then I realized they would expect me to do allof it for the same pay rate. :mad: Now I just play dumb unless it benefits me somehow.

    Probably sounds bad, but I've been screwed over at so many jobs learning how to run forklifts, train others to use them, do this, do that..... And then not get a raise in 6 months for being "not being productive enough" in my area... :confused: How the fuck am I supposed to be productive in "my area" when I doing everyone else's jobs? :rolleyes: Yeah. So now I play dumb.

    Well I am a New Media Designer it is just a fancy word for a graphic designer with skillz. I really love photo editing but I am currently doing newspaper layout work, slow times.

    I have ran tractors doing farm work, my favorite was a CAT D6 that I ran in the Bay Area hills. And I have beef cattle that I also manage for my father.
