    Hey guys.
    I have been searching the forums to find out what bcers work with.
    i haven't been able to find any posts or threads about this (maybe it's just me, who can't use the seach engine the right way) :p

    So we all know that it is very difficult to live by the payment you get from playing badminton even as a pro. Therefore i was wondering what my fellow bcers do for a living.

    I'm studying at the moment, and in my spare time i work in a fitness center. Because i study, and i'm a danish citizen, i get money from the government as well. and it helps living at my moms place :p

    Please reply, so we can find out what the people we discuss badminton with, are doing when they are not here on bc :)

    Okay, so I'm actually unemployed and applying to graduate school. But if I get this job I'm interviewing for tomorrow, then I'll post back and declare a job.

    Well..

    ..as you can see from the "How much do you earn a month?" thread, there are only 169 of us BCers who are actually employed (that number could change)...So, that makes the rest of the BCers either students or unemployed..

    Btw, here's another thread which attempted the same query as this thread..which drifit already mentioned:
    http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16195
    ..eh, all of those activities fall under the "Every time you logged-in BC job"..:cool:

    I request a better computer to replace my 7 yr old computer. I get a blow to my head from IT and tell me I am asking too much and they can not give me the computer I need. It sucks when I see the summer intern gets the computer with the spec I requested 2 years ago. And I have to rewrite programs to run on the older computer... Suck and blow, blow and suck...:D

    My everyday job

    1. Turn on the laptop

    2. Brush/Wash/Bath

    3. Sit in front of the laptop (access Internet, check mail, etc)

    4. Breakfast

    5. Go to University (attend lectures, tutorials)

    6. If my lectures start in the afternoon, after having my lunch then only I go to Uni.

    7. Back from Uni, take dinner and bath.

    8. Online again. Then attempt tutorial questions and do revision. I am a multitasker, sometimes at night, I even watch TV + online + attempt tutorial questions :D

    * But for Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, (7.30pm to 10pm) I will be at the badminton hall for badminton session. :D
