Work experience- the opportunity to travle the world (Change World for local area :D) see many people (Change many for a few) and taste all the different Foods for the countries (Change food for tripe, and countries for Cafeteria :D)

Work experience, as a whole, is supposedly pretty boring. I was intended to spend 4 days with Barclays Bank in London. Now that's pretty cool, as it's the Computer side of things, but I got lucky. My dad (works at Barclays in the Tech Section) knows a few people at Microsoft (As they share business deals, or something :D) and it so appened that Work experience popped up in their conversation. I was offered to go to Microsoft next year in the summer, when i'm 16 (that's the minimum age they will allow in apparantly) but something lucky happened.

My Dad was talking about how I win games on here, and the Man he knows asked to see one of my Winning posts. I gave my dad the Health Hazard one, and he showed the guy at MS. He was so impressed with it, he offered me a Day at the Xbox department of Microsoft UK (In London) working with Advertising, customer relations and trying soem games out (yay!) and not only that, they are using my post as Consumer Info! :D

I'll report back here and tell you guys what it was like when I go in about three weeks. :D

Good luck. Its a hard job though... and you do get bored.

I don't want to pursue a profession in testing games as I once tried, as it ruined a great past-time and the fun.

Well, I don't know if I am a geek or not. I don't think i'm a geek, but it depends what other people view me as.
