A recent college graduate, Sean Aiken, decided to try a new job every week for 52 weeks. He isn't getting paid, but asks each employer to donate his wages/salary to a charity. After traffice to his website picked up, he began documenting his jobs. The last week in November he worked at the GA Aquarium. Video link here: http://www.brightcove.tv/title.jsp?title=1318910079

His website is oneweekjob.com
 
Nice find man!!! Man I would love to work there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 week or 10 years would be fine...
 
Cool. The GA Aquarium is the bomb. I lived a block from it while it was being constructed. If I hadn't moved, I'd have a season pass and be there constantly.
 
Don't forget, if you are coming to MACNA this year you will have a great opportunity to see this fantastic aquarium! There are a few Atlanta Reef Club members that volunteer there (even diving in the tanks) so there will be some good folks on hand that know about the aquarium from an insiders perspective.
 
wow....last week of thanksgiving must be a great time to go to the georgia aquarium....the place was virtually empty in that video.

the time i went....dec.30.....the place was PACKED. it was ridiculous....i didn't get to see half the stuff there b/c there were just way too many people, way too many kids running around pushing/shoving etc. but the behind the scenes tour (no kids allowed), was totally worth the $50-$60. i could definitely do that again!!
 
Surfn- Yeah, I don't remember if it was you or someone else posting in the thread about mangroves talking about the behind the scenes tour. But I am convinced and will definitely take the tour when I make it out there. Maybe I will go during MACNA XX.
