    If you, like me, have a lifelong dream to play video games & get paid for it, then you may be interested to know that Blizzard is currently looking for experienced players to be WoW Game Masters (or, Customer Service Representatives, as the official title goes). The job is full time, on-site at their Irvine, California offices, so if you live in the area & are interested, visit this link for more information on how to apply.I'm not sure I could ever be a GM; I get enough people complaining & making me feel guilty before I even log onto the game...I don't need it there, too.
