Last time I was in Vancouver T&T was a supermarket?
the boss and superiorities called us busboys, because we do everything required. the full job name is General Service. We collect those annoying little red carts, sweep the floor, answer shoppers demands, help you deliver those groceries to your car, help cashier package when there is a crowd, we do anything that the anyone asks us to do. all that and u get paid @ 8.50. no extra benefit with 60 bucks of deductions every 2 pay cycle.

Sex therapist.

Medical/psychology degrees. 6 years total. Pay is great and benefits....... well, what can I say?

Frigid women are the worst, but I like challenges. Good thing is, I can refuse the really bad ones. I cannot give details, but some women who cum in with above average libido's are incredible. Nuff said.

Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

The frigid ones, no. Most of them cannot have sex, because they have been raised in very strange situations. The ultra horny ones, yes! Oh, hot damn, yes! Mostly because they have to do their best to attract their mate, straight or gay.

I have to show them how to cope with their insatiable needs. It's hard for some because they squirt or have uncontrollable multiple orgasms. It's a huge problem for these individuals, because most of the time it leads to promiscuity. Unwanted, but cannot be helped. They don't want to be branded sluts or nymphomaniacs. They really cannot help themselves. Treatment starts with mechanical devices, then it graduates to finding what triggers their libido. It's very complicated. Some of the weirdest things set them off. Cooking, for example. One young woman became triggered with the sounds created by a mixer of all things. Anyway, if any of you are interested in this field, the hardest part is being professional about it and staying professional.

Certification is the toughest part. The process is long and arduous.

The best part of the job (most gratifying) is when I work with married couples who have a hard time with their sexual relationship. You won't believe how many men have fantasies involving role reversal. Anyway, I've said enough already.

If any of you are having any difficulty sexually with your partner, seriously seek sex therapy. Next to financial troubles, intimacy and performance in bed is the biggest cause of break ups.

Totally agree! My younger cousins are just starting University, and I've always warned them to figure out what they want on the bigger picture and not to drift. People who study very unemployable degrees (e.g. Philosophy, etc.), is like answering a question nobody asked.
I've repeatedly told them to figure out what the biggest questions are, and then become the answer.

So are you designated with the CFA then? Cuz if you were planning on becoming a financial planner, going through the CFA course is an over kill.

Sadly no, I am not Jeremy Clarkson.

But I write reviews for a number of outlets right now. The best bet, if you're looking to get into the field, is to call up RPM Motoring Monthly (604-927-2588) and tell them you'd like to get into writing, and go from there.

But be prepared to cut your teeth on other writing for at least a few years.
