Do you drink alcoholic drinks at work?
At work no. Grounds for instant dismissal.
Could you suggest a job were drinking at work is allowed, or even encouraged?
In the past when we weren't so scared about our jobs and we were really friends at work we used to have a'' little one''from time to time.
Lol....there was a time when an old decree completely forbid it but everybody drank, from the doorman to the general manager. We had such great parties at work....
What kind of job you'll never do?
Telemarketing. Some of those sell the sleaziest, most worthless products and services. Take your money and run.
What's the best job you ever had?
Either graphic designing at a local newspaper - enjoyed the job, but the boss was an ass, or swim coaching, the actual job was great, but the back stabbing and gutter politics were tiresome.
If you aren't already, would you consider being self employed?
I am self employed and in a nation where you wouldn't be it, cause there is no job and it is difficult to get to the end of a trial when clients don't pay but I really enjoy it since I have a basis of trusted and decent clients. I can wake up when I want, can organize my time but the most important thing is that I have the possibility to grow both professionally and economically. The worst thing is that I can go broke as well and taxes here in Italy are high beyond imagination :)
What do you think about neoliberalism?
free trade etc cant be all bad. But the only way philosophies like this work is if there is a level playing field, which is rarely the case - unfortunately.
Can you explain the reason/story etc behind your user name?
Sure. It's the name I picked when I joined because it's one of the things I have done at the track, among other things. I still use Starter because, back when I was a Moderator here, I was heavily involved in racing both pro and amateur (still am, though not pro anymore) and many of the folks who inhabited the CART and IndyCar forums (there were two of them then) were pretty passionate about their group - this was during the "split". I would actually meet some of them in person at races. Some were, ah..., less than pleasant on the board and needed to be chastised or sometimes sat down. It could be difficult in dealing with them on a personal level if they knew who "Starter" was. After all those years there's no reason to change now.
Same question to the next one up.
Gadjo dilo is the title of a french movie about a young French man who comes to Romania to do some research about a singer in a gipsy community. It means crazy stranger in Romany, strange with the sense of an intruder. I thought it becomes me as I landed here without being a Motorsport fan. :devil:
It was also very convenient because of the neutral "o'' ending of the words cos I thought people wouldn't think I'm a woman. Well, never thought I'll ever dare to post something here ( and look at me now.....:laugh: )
The funny thing was that I got to see this movie only a few years ago.
I kinda dislike this nickname, sounds a bit Slavic and the DJ pronunciation scratches my brain. But I'm too lazy to change it.
Same q.
