    Job interview with SEGA yesterday went extremely well, annoyingly its a 2 interview process but I've been assured that I'm in the second.

    I was like: NO!
    But then: Oh.. That's okay, you're still cool...

    From your gameplay videos? How much o_O I've always wanted to get motivation to start somekind of tech-channel, reviews or something with my horrible english, just to improve my spoken english.

    Finally managed to swallow my pride, build up a little courage and force my way into getting a better deal on my internship contract. Just had to admit it was my own fault that I'm behind schedule to graduate then do a little negotiating to arrange for another year. It's a massive weight of my chest. Now I just need to keep a steady pace and I'll have a full-time permanent position waiting for me!

    Depending on who you listen to, it's something like $1/£1 per 1000 views. It's a very complicated system however and the value of views and click on adverts ( placed on your video or website etc ) varies a lot depending on how many views they actually get on a given day, or some nonsense like that ( looking at my Adsense overview right now and it's a mind-**** for sure ).

    I placed a couple ads on each of my website pages 4-5 months back and I've made on average about £5 per month from ~6000 views a couple dozen clicks each month. They don't pay out until you hit £60 though so you need to have a popular site to make any real money from it. Same applies to Youtube & being a partner ( which you can straight away now, don't have to wait until you hit ~10,000 views which means us guys who joined youtube a while back have missed out on a few quid, rather annoying ) though I've made only pennies from that side of things :lol:

    After a seemingly successful interview yesterday I received a text today telling me I got the job. I start Tuesday for Induction. Then will be on permanent nights for the coming months over Christmas.

    Will be working Thursday - Saturday 11pm till 7am. With overtime I could work up to two more shifts.

    Thats Christmas sorted and my next Computer related purchase more HDD space.
