You wouldn't be encouraging theft, would you Dark Elf, naughty naughty. But i am sure that Comrade Badger is a very responsible adult and would never consider taking your advice, hehehehe.

£4.50 an hour when on shopfloor but doing repairs and stuff I think it's somewhere in the region of £45 a job.

 

[Jimmeh]

Sounds great Badger, think of all the stuff you can swipe

My brother works as I.T support for a stock broking company, they have some great kit up there hehe While you won't top of the line graphics cards, there's apparently just stockrooms full of equipment like P4 3.2's and other stuff. If I need more RAM, I just ask, and I'll have another gig the next day

 

[dart321]

Thats like my dream job. Congrats. How did you get it? Just a normal apply for the position thing or do you have connections?

Perhaps you could sell stuff on Ebay and make a bit of money.

Well, Badger is 17. Although he is mr charisma, you can't say no to his cheesy grin . Ah so badger your potatoe days are over?

 

[ComradeBadger]

Rawr The next youngest person there is 21 so I got lucky really.

And no, I'm still working ol' Fine Foods at the weekends for a little bit :E



And Foxtrot I would go insane if it was just tech support, but a lot of it is building new machines, pushing our current machines further, pestering companies for discounts etc :E

You'll never catch me! I'm gone with the goddamn wind, badger! AHAHAHAHA!

Today was proper funny:

While clearing a hard drive of bugs n stuff, we stumbled across some kids' porn collection... his transexual porn collection :|

We had a guy who'd bolted his motherboard to the case chassis, and someone who couldn't get his PC to detect his Camera - he hadn't changed the mode from 'VIDEO CAPTURE' to 'PC BACKUP'

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

Tee hee...... Sounds like a laugh.... and a lil scary....

lol did you keep it yours and his little secret :thumbs:

 

[ComradeBadger]

Nah we removed it along with all their warez crap - the hard drive had to be formatted in the end - so off went tranny_suprise.mpg

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

For a moment I thought it was kiddie porn and not a kids porn.
I was half expecting a news headline tommorow -

Masked hero, known only as ComradeBadger takes down paedophile baron.
