Thinking it's about time I had a career change, so I'm interested to know what jobs you had that you loved, and which ones you hated.
Do any of you have a job that you bounce out of bed to get to in the mornings, or like me, any that you repeatedly hit the snooze button for before dragging yourselves out of bed??
The last job i had previous to my current job was by far one of the best jobs i could ever have created. Sailing school and powerboating based teaching and organising. Alas things change and i find myself looking around and thinking WTF.
But for every job i apply for it seems as tho my qualifacations are to much and many and yet for others maybe not enough. Where do i stand what direction do i go in.
But for the support of my lovely wife i would be lost completely.
mmmm where do i start had so many i suppose my first job when i left school working in a kitchen hated that.
Then i worked in retail for six years loved that had some goods laughs along the way.
Just like Biggles I also worked in a kitchen after leaving school, and hated it too.
The best job I had was working for a major cable tv supplier (not sky) when we lived in Dublin. Among the perks were free basic and premium tv such as sports movies etc, and free broadband too. And the pay was fantastic, with financial bonuses that have never been replicated elswhere.
But what I do now is my passion, and allows me to use my creative side. :idea: :thumbup:
I used to work in a factory that makes them big round meat blocks that spin for ages and ages in kebab shops.....
I was a student, and broke, and really needed the cash.
It was horrible, and i have never eaten a kebab !!!

Done all sorts over the years.... shops, bars, offices, sold toilet roll for charity, BT/Emergency Services Telephone Operator... but the best one always has been (and I think always will be) running a motorcycle training school in Scotland, 5 years of being wet, cold, windblown, being paid to ride my bike all day, on some of the best roads ever, with the satisfaction of seeing people coming out of the test centres with big silly grins on their faces when they passed their test..... ahhhhhh sigh.
