That's what this thread is about - getting to know me better and seeing if I'm fit for the position I'm applying for. :)

Age isn't always a factor, I've come to realise that the past 2 years. For example, my big brother is really immature, he barely cares about anything and just enjoys life at its finest. He doesn't care if he'll have enough money to buy fuel for his car tomorrow, he just wants to go outside with friends and have fun. I'm not that kind of a person. I've been told by many people that I'm a lot more mature than I'm supposed to be. Yet, I have to admit, sometimes I'm really acting like a little kid. I believe that's normal, but who knows. Though, when it comes to work I'm always acting as I should. I take everything seriously, even when it's a joke. I like to be prepared, appreciated for my hard work and, of course, somewhat respected. I want to add that respect doesn't really matter that much. Everybody likes being respected, but in my opinion it matters who respects you, not how many people do. Quality over quantity.

That happens everyday. I just smile and keep doing what I'm supposed to do. It doesn't matter how annoyed I'm, it's my job and I do it as I'm supposed to. Lately, nobody has been able to annoy me enough to get me mad, not even my brother. I suppose that's because after getting annoyed so often by so many people, I've learned how to keep myself cool. I know how to stay motivated and motivation gives me enough strength to overcome this kind of stuff.

I've always been reporting actively. Even when I'm really busy and I go to Epvp, whenever I see something that isn't appropriate or violates the rules, I simply report it. It really doesn't cost that much time, I wish more people got to understand that.

Lets say I was a user right now, and I said 'omg Pesho, why didn't you close that thread in time. You aren't a very good Moderator are you?'

I'm constantly blamed for everything at work. It's just that everybody (customers and employees) think of me as the boy who does everything and on time. Whenever I mess up something, I apologize and do my best to be faster next time. I like being blamed, even if it sounds weird. People tell me what I should improve and then I can do my best for that not to happen again.

I've played almost every game on Facebook (don't blame me for that, I just have tons of free times... night shifts are tough :D). And even though I haven't played Seafight in the past 3 years, I'm sure using Google to find answer to the question or reading some of the threads would be enough to find a good solution. Most of the questions are being repeated daily and it's easy to solve the problem.

The business is a shop. We sell cigarettes, alcohol, sweets, newspapers and stuff like that. My father owns a few shops, I'm currently working at 2 of them. I do everything, let's say I'm the "manager". I do everything when it comes to paying for software, taxes and managing what the employees will pay for the current day (i'll try to explain it better... Everyday there are specific deliveries but there aren't always enough money for all of them. And because our employees always manage to mess everything up, I'm the one who does that. I'm really experienced and I know exactly how much to order. The problem is that you need to make sure there will be enough money. If the money aren't enough, one has to find a way to pay for the goods received. That usually happens after talking to the company that delivers, let's say the cigarettes, and agree to pay a part of the sum tomorrow or whenever is the next delivery).

Of course, there are many smaller things, but I believe these are the important ones. In general, I'd like to keep the community and prevent spam, viruses and any kind of violating the rules. Sometimes the moderators in our section aren't online, which is understandable, and instead of just reporting the content, I'd be able to directly delete it, thus preventing people from getting infected by viruses, etc.
