They get to sit at a computer all day playing World of Warcraft, in between the occasional scanning of a card and taking someones money.

Personally, I've always wanted to grow up to be the Popcorn Boy at O2 (a bar I know with a real popcorn machine).

WoW - Destroyer of lives.

I remember entertaining of the idea that playing wow for a living would be the epitome of an ideal life.

I thought that for a good 1 year.

Thank god my interest in the game started wanning.

Playing Wow for a living in a PC bang wouldn't all that's it cracked up to be. You get paid beans.

Be a chinese gold farmer, those assholes rake it in.

You get free second hand smoke. Lots of it.

It pays 4,000 an hour. Not worth a squirt of my piss.
