That's cool. It sounds like it must be occasionally fun.

@ Dio: Think of it this way: chances are robot's will be doing it soon ;)

College student and a supervisor at a family fun center. I have to deal with little annoying kids and stupid parents who I think should have never breeded. As much as I hated to say it, on Sunday, I saw one of the stupidest things at work. We have a little riding fire truck that moves back and forth, it has Bert and Ernie on it. Because it is just a little ride that goes back and forth, we don't have it secured to the floor. Well, some kids were climbing on the back of the machine, with their parents standing there watching them. Well, I ask the kids not to climb all over the machine, because it may tip over. The parents finally tell the kids to not climb on it, after i tell the kids not to do it. So I walk away for a minute to finish what i was doing, and I come back to find the little b**stards back on the machine, while the parents stand there and watch the kids shake the machine, almost making it tip over. I tell them not to climb on it, and the parents then procceed to tell the kids not to climb on it. I walked away saying that I wish that machine would tip, just so that parents kids wouldn't be able to reproduce.....

but i'm not bitter or anything

I'm a Billing Supevisor in an outpatient hospital. I oversee the pre-surgical billing functions -checking with the insurance companies etc- as well as the Coding Manager. That means I read all the operative reports to code them for belling.

Before that I was an X-Ray tech for 20 years.

Classic X-Ray tech fun: The film cassettes (those large flat metal things we're constantly changing if you had x-rays) have radioluscient coatings inside. Close and lock all the doors, take out the film from the cassettes and lay them all over the room open. Turn off all the lights, crank your machine up to at least 300ma, 500kv for about 30 seconds and let her rip! The whole room lights up in a weird greenish-purple color.

You can also play "What's this an X-Ray of" with common household items. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, take an abdominal (KUB) shot of yourself or willing victim and do a double exposure with a pile of broken chicken bones or barbie dolls. Always good for a laugh on a slow afternoon!

Classic x-ray tech really-lousy-days: After a particulary messy surgey, having to take the flouro unit apart for the 3rd time that week to clean out the 2 pints of blood. :mad:

I sell small scripts and do custom sound design and textures. However I'm mostly dependent on my stipend so I don't know if I could call it a living....
