This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]

Sometimes on Lemmy these seem like the only jobs that actually exist, but I'm sure there's a lot of people here with different and unusual lines of work.

Customer Service Rep is my title

CSR/AR/AP/Billing/IT is a lot closer to my actual workload

Before that I worked in the yard doing propane repair, and my name starts with Ha- so if I ever make Assistant Manager, well, I'll truly have become my childhood hero by complete fuckin accident.

Oh, I also used to be the guy responsible for keeping the people living up in the hills near Redding, CA with power after the fires 2 years ago. During the 6 rivers lightning complex fire in 2022 I was within a few hundred feet of the fire break crews while I was 4x4ing up mountainsides to keep generators full of fuel.
