1. What do you do for a living? I am a "Fraud Specialist" at Nextel. Basically, I look at a few accounts everyday and determine if they were set up using fraudulent credit. I basically follow our sales force around the database and undue what they have done because they are working so hard to get a commission that they cut corners. But I also work on issues of identity theft and account hijacking and adjust charges/deactivate accounts were invalid charges have occurred.
2. What do you like most about your job? I am generally do a good thing and am actually contributing to some good in the world. It is a laid back department with smart people and a very generous corporation.
3. What do you like least about your job? When I close one of our tickets wrong, I know I will get dinged the next day and it irritates me that I can let little things like that slip by.
4. When you have a bad day at work it's usually because _____... I am unable to fulfill God's glory and message while pinned in my cube.
5. What other career(s) are you interested in?
Porn. *
*(see the dichotomy between 4 and 5? That is a joke, you see. We built the foundation in the joke in number 4 when I made up the crap about Jesus and then slammed the joke home, (in the humor parlance, "the hammer") by going the other way - again in the world of humor writing a misdirection - by tossing in the porn reference.)
