In past tv commercials, my work's had Shirley Ellis and the Be Good Tanyas playing. The new spring commercial has the Salteens.

Suck on that, Wal-Mart.

For whom do you work, and what is it you do for them?

i don't have a boss around 99% of the time...

i see her once a week at a meeting where my work really doesn't get discussed/

its kind of upsetting to know someone is getting paid to be your boss
but they don't actually do any bosslike activity

i'd probably get more work done and be a little less stressed if she cracked the whip once in a while

my dad says "you're boss is a she?!"

Get to be creative all day in video and graphics

Get to go places and shoot commercials (places that I would never get to go to normally like Volvo powertrain factory, or where they make pretty much every bathtub/shower install on the east coast)

Cool coworkers, who are down with hearing new things, and don't take things seriously.

I live across the street so no commute.

Where to begin...
My schedule is pretty much completely up to me
My co-workers will throw a potluck for pretty much any reason you can dream up
I gets paaaaaaayed
4 wks vacay
I get to write about pretty much whatever I want
My paper isn't part of a publicly traded company, so there's not the insane profit pressure as there is at most places these days

I just moved up to 4 weeks vacation this year (actually 22 days). And, I just found out on Friday i'm getting just over a 5% bonus this year and a 10% raise. Sweet!

3 weeks vacation, about two weeks of paid holiday, good benefits, and the chance to watch lots of hot college girls walk around campus.
