    After school? Not 100% sure, something sciency XD

    Woah they sound like awesome work ex's :L
    I completely understand the thinking behind wanting to work at a beauty counter, it would be so awesome ^^

    Nice, there's money to be made in Science ;) pity me, I'm the sort of person that thinks of the fruity drink before water when they hear H2O; okay, bad example, but what I mean is that I am have no scientific inclination whatsoever :confused:.

    I know, right? I've been laughed at in the past for saying I wanted to work on one: pricks, just because they've all got contacts in high places in newspapers and stuff... :pac:.

    Im gonna do one week in a school and don't know where to do the other D:

    Might try a solicitors or somewhere,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,472 ✭✭✭SChique00




    So what if Floridas better (and it Operating Systems apparently) Paris Operating Systems deadly too! :D

    WTF? Never mind.... Heineken sounds deadly: just think of all the free 6-packs! LoL you've actually given me a thought: Harp in Dundalk! My dad worked in there yonks ago; maybe he had some contacts? :rolleyes:

    Do you only have to do 2 weeks? Lucky or wha' :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,152 ✭✭✭Cakes.


    We do two weeks too.

    I thought about a Photography Studio but was told not to because unless they're really busy that week you'll be sitting around doing nothing or get sent home.

    I might ask the museum or somewhere actually.

    Don't go to a solicitors! You'll be stuck filing the whole week, because all of the the interesting stuff is confidential..... at least, so I've heard ;)

    Damn that's not fair! We have 3: one in November one in February and one in May! :mad:

    Really? I was thinking of one too but after what you said... I'll have a brainstorm about it....

    The museum might be a safe bet :) what school are you going to?

    There actually isn't loads of money :p Sure you get maybe €80K a year but you could be making 3 times that if you were a solicitor or doctor

    Lol.... I actually wanted to be a pathologist when I was younger; there was a time in my life where I could walk through mounds of dead bodies and not bat an eyelid. Now's a different story - I cower when they show the crime scenes on Criminal Minds :eek:
