Hi! Does anybody know a web site that has careers that you can actually observe the people doing your job that you want to be? (If that even made sense.):o
Like a web site that shows you I guess how to do your job or what you have to do in your job.:confused:
What kind of job is it that you are asking about?
I know that you are looking at your question right now. Please answer since I would like to help you. Thank you!
Okay. So, now I can see that you are offline from this site. Without knowing the specific type of job about which you are inquiring, I would suggest that you do a Google search for Job Descriptions with the name of the type of job beside those words about which you would like information. For instance, below is the link for the Google search for just Job Descriptions. There is a lot of information on the various sites on that search concerning what a person has to do in various jobs.
Job Descriptions - Google Search
Oh sorry about being offline and all I had to go some where. Anyway the person I want to be or the career I want to pursue would be a comic artist or you could say a Manga-ka, which is someone who want's to draw manga comics.Quote:

I know you said you wanted something online to watch. What about job-shadowing someone in real life? A graphics artist would fill the bill. Where (generally) do you live?
In North Carolina. What is job shadowing?Quote:

Job shadowing is following a certain employee for a day or even a week or two to see what he does as part of his job. I work as a cataloger in a library and have been shadowed by high schoolers who are thinking about a library career or by adults who want to switch careers. I usually put them to work doing various parts of my job so they can get a real feel for what cataloging entails.
You'd have to find a manga artist in your area, contact him or her, and get permission to hang out with him/her while at work on manga art.
Everything these days seems to be on the Internet, so I went to YouTube and put "manga artist" in the search box. I got this nifty video (with a musical background! ) and with others recommended along the side of the video box.
YouTube - Manga Artist @ Work - Sketch
Here's another one with the artist commenting as he draws:

OH MY GOSH! THANKYOUx100 this helped me so much and it was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you! You are very kind to. And some of my family lives in Taylorsville as well! Though they just come to where I live we don't really go there.Quote:

There are also other videos, including a librarian yelling at a patron.
