    WoW and Work, Where are you employed?

    Just something I thought would be interesting to find out. I'm not sure if similar threads have been made before and if so I apologize.

    However, I'm 18 and currently work at a Mexican Restaurant, go to school, and game in WoW. How about you guys?

    36, housewife, I play in between getting things done around the house. And the first one of you kids who even thinks about saying something like 'get back in the kitchen' or 'go make me a sammich' is gonna meet the business end of my cast iron frying pan. ;D

    19, working 06.00am-12.00 in a grocers. (absolutely no chance that I can game in between)
    fun fact: my brother works at some computer thingy, where he searches the internet for all kinds of car parts, the firm he works at has paid him both a desktop, laptop and a mobile, all with free internet and whatsoever.. If he would like he can work home EVERYDAY, which is quite awesome :-)

    I'm glad to see that many of you have responded. It's always just interesting to see who all plays WoW.

    23 here. I'm the lead of the shipping and receiving end of a medical supplier company. I'm supposed to work like only 40 hours, but lately I've been pushing over 50 easily. Hell, last week I worked 82 hours in a 5-day week.

    All I really have time for is PvP now, it seems.
