That doesn't prove anything about you having your own office.

All that proves is you took a trip to New York.

How does it feel to be in the same league as Michael Scott?

@freejuspower: The company is based out of Madison, WI, but my two clients (with whom I spend the majority of my time with) are located in New York and Houston.

@looooooooool: I triple majored in Economics, Psychology and East Asian Studies. My three biggest advice are:
1) Major in something practical. A liberal arts major (for the most part) isn't going to get you anywhere in life. Major in something like econ, business, engineering, etc...
2) Internships. Most jobs look at experience, rather than your grades or extracurriculars when it comes to hiring people. The more experience you have (especially if they are in your field), the better chances you have of landing a good job. I recommending finding an internship for the company you want to work for starting Junior year. A lot of companies tend to hire you full time based on how you do during your internship.
3) Make connections. This doesn't mean go give a bj to every big shot you see. It means not limiting yourself to one group of people. Stay open, don't close the door on anyone, and always get their contact information. One day, that one person you met at that random party will be the one writing your recommendation letter.

@looooooooool: I'm 22. This is a full time job, with a 401k, benefit plans, and all that fun stuff. I went to Brandeis University in the States.

@pinksinsftw: You don't. Everything we do is monitored. Not on a constant basis, of course, but certain websites will fire off certain alarms.

@MegaZord: Depends. Do you like manga? if so, read Liar Game and Noblesse.

If you like real comics, I'd recommend the Walking Dead or Batman: The Killing Joke.

@misslime: Okok sorry. Yes, I do have my own office.

@DemonsFromSpace: No, I have a laptop and a monitor. It's so I can work more efficiently. Most large companies are switching to a dual monitor model.

@Metaghost4: I mentioned my pay earlier, and I studied Economics, Psychology and East Asian Studies in school. I'm currently pursuing a consulting path with hopes of expanding to an international market in the future. My goal is to oversee and consult on mergers with international firms.

@NoNsensical: I'm flying to New York currently on a business trip. It's a 2.5 hour flight, so I like to occupy my time with Basil.
@BangBanghuna: see above ^^^
@misslime: is trolling fun?
@gargantula2: Damn right!
@Killeen: Pretty damn good. The base salary is ~85k, not including benefits/bonuses.

Must be fun for you to have a dad who takes you along to work everyday! Bring your child to work should not be limited to a day
