You're a PI? I've always wanted to become a PI.

Good money? Qualifications? Fun work?

Mullen

Funnily enough, I was watching some show last night and thought to myself that it would be pretty cool to be a PI. I'm guessing it wouldn't be as glamorous as everyone thinks though.

The question I have is.... do you have to wear the short shorts and the hawaiin shirts? Or are they flexible with the dress code ;)

Shawn

It's not really too glamorous, unless you have good cases.

My uncle was a PI and I used to type up reports of his investigations when I was a teenager. Obviously, I can't discuss specifics (;p), but it was boring stuff.

6 PM. Arrive outside house.
8:34 PM. Observe Cheating Husband take out the garbage.
9:15 PM. Bedroom light turns off on the front right window.
9:45 PM. Mistress arrives in a silver Chevy Tahoe. Knocks, enters residence after being greeted by Cheating Husband.
11 PM. Pizza delivery man arrives. Cheating husband pays cash, takes no change.
12:34 AM. Lights in house turn off.

Surveillance terminated at 12:59 AM.

Surveillance re-established at 6:42 AM. Lights in house remain off, Tahoe remains in driveway.

That's basically how the entire reports went, but very in-depth.

Oh snap, Jon's (the Twigster) here now. I guess that I've missed quite a bit...
but usually I spend my time online (chatting on MSN the whole time):
- http://cgchat.com
- here
- the rest of my time's spent creating and editing my sites, working on other peoples' layouts, and the dominating one: UCFV assignments.

Jon

1. WP & SPF.
2. Keeping tabs on my projects and my project managers.
3. news.google.com & Fox News (I'm a Republican, leave me alone!)
4. Market research on any new ideas I have, or spying on my competitors.
5. Playing Risk, Rummy 500, and Dope Wars. (I'm a sucker for old games)

That's pretty much all I do, day in and day out, 7 days a week.

I'm going to add a link to a site I've been spending too much time on this past week:
http://www.safehaven.com/

I'm a little bit on the nuts side because not to many people have any interest in economics, let alone study it in their free time completely outside of any academic setting. I've been trying to learn as much as I can about currency and monetary policy. Despite the slightly alarmist slant of the articles on the site I've learned a lot in the past week.

Mine are: bbc.co.uk, theregister.co.uk, digitalspy.co.uk, sitepoint.com/forums, thedvdforums.com/forums, geekvillage.com/forums (not as interested in this place as I used to be), Burstmedia's forum, wikipedia.org and monster.com (for the moment).

Plus my own sites and of course google.com - almost forgot that one! ;)

My neighbor was a PI until she went back to school for teaching. I don't recall her wearing a hawaiian shirt (and it would probably make her look out of place since she was investigating people in New Jersey who were faking worker's compensation injuries)

Great stuff Cutter, I have watched stuff like that all my life starting very young, hedge funds and the stock markets are interesting, but they sure can drive you nuts if you lose money instead of making it..... :goof:
