Yea Hippo, you make it sound ace….

THE REALITY – strap in Divie

8:50 get in to the office make a coffee or if you over slept then its now more like 9:30
9:30 the lead will have told you that your going on Split shifts for the next three months…don’t expect to see anyone ever again. Plead your case for ‘why I should be on earlies’ unless you are one of those ..”COOL FREE PIZZA????? WHAT I DON’T HAVE TO PAY AND I CAN ORDER CHICKEN WINGS INSTEAD” for most, this novelty wears off fast but there are a few, usually the spottier, goth T-Shirt wearing ones that smell of wee (hate to stereotype but heh wait and tell me I’m wrong) that see late nights and Pizza playing games and trying to change the desktop wallpaper on the util pc as a Utopian existance.

EARLIES If you get 7am to 3pm, you will think cool..i’ll be home at 4 and I can happily wave at the next bunch of loosers as they walk in. Except you conveniently forget that you will no longer be able to sit up until 4am playing BF2 or World of Borecraft so you will take a desk at the back and fall asleep in the previous late shifts curry grease sodden desk at 7.30am hiding behind the divider….long term you will turn into a Zombie that perpetually tells themselves that you are the envy of all when in reality you have forgotten that life outside the great house of the unwashed a chamber that packs in testers like battery chickens and smells of microwave popcorn, 3 day old Pizza and rancid half eaten Beef pot noodles that have been thrown under the desk…oh I forgot the JB’s takeaways…..no I will never forget JB’s takeaways and neither will my Ring.

LATE SHIFT Yay now you can stay up until 6am playing World of Borecraft AND BF2, get up around 2pm and go in..awesome you may think.. You will get handed all the dodgy game coverage that no other bugger wanted …ooo cool you want me to spend the next 7 hours moving the pause menu volume slider to every position…..and then do it on the NTSC version…just as you finish there will be a new build and you will have to do it again.” then before you know it you will be ordering you next Pizza while your level 3 colon is still battling with the last level 25 Doughbeast. You will go home at 11.00pm and will jump on server after server just as they empty…pah real people doing normal hours sux0r.

NIGHTS If you have a team leader as good as I was, then you will be able to turn all the lights off and have a kip and no-one will ever know…pfft yea right like you’d get away with that *cough**ahem*

So as Hippo says ” repetition, repetition, repetition, repetition” the whole ‘in Sweden testing BF2’ is blue moon stuff and you even if you are lucky to be plucked into the light you will be there so long that you will end up calling everyone Olaf and driving a 1974 Volvo and will consider contributing to Stockholms ‘largest teenage suicide rates’ while listening to ABBA on your Ipod, meanwhile your mrs (if she’s hung around since you told her you were going into games testing) will have buggered off siteing reasons of ‘conflicting attitudes’ you weren’t into Yoga and she wasn’t really into pwning looos0r n00bs.

Joking aside, it’s not a bad career choice but be prepared for a little disappointment it will do your head in. Gameboy Catwoman still wakes me up screaming.
I’d still say it was probably the best job I’ve had to date, met some ace people (not Hippo he’s real dodgy and looks like a vampire cursed Milky Bar kid) and ideal if you have little or no commitments and are happy living day to day.

The punchline is I’m testing IVR phone systems in NZ, NO PIZZA and you have to actually test. Mind you it pays nearly 4 times as much, so get the games thang out of your system, go get ISTQB accredited and then earn some proper testing cash, preferably somewhere sensible in the world.

err so how are you all?
