My only (major) problem with work is that it prevents my enjoyment of life.
Other than that - no problem.

At least you don't have to buy any drinks all day 
I drove 120 miles today through Abergavenny, Builth Wells and Brecon, lovely country roads, pity the three meeting I had in between spoilt it

well since nobody has said that they like or enjoy their work ill be different I LIKE MY JOB there now! Mind you there is a difference between like
and love. Some days you think there couldn't possibly be any job like it and then others where the clock just seems to go backwards! I'm
just a regular sparky but at the minute we are installing a waste recycle conveyer line were we build and program the control panels. A lot of work
but i got others there to do the ignorant work while i build the control panels. very nice work no stress involved!
my aim is to build my own locost wether it takes me a week or 10 years to get started, i'm sure i will sometime

Bit like my job. Driving roung like an ar$e in my works van and works fuel card (WOOHOO). When I get to where ever I'm going I get to sit down
and play with some screw drivers for 30 mins. Then get up, finish the tea the nice customer made me and go do it all over again.MUCH better than a
proper job!

Seven 12 hour shifts rebuilding a blast furnace at the minute, hot work as the hat, boots, overalls and safety glasses are mandatory at all times.
There's a working furnace 100ft away as well and the hot blast has been warming up the one I'm on too. And I do 140 miles a day getting
there and back, but at least I'm totally caked in grime when I get home.
I enjoy my job sometimes.
DO NOT PUT ON KNOB OR BOLLOCKS!

Sounds like time to do something different..
I have the good fortune to be on an (unpaid) leave until November from my occupation. Great opportunity to pursue my pre-occupation (getting some work
done on the locost).

I run the techy bits in an IT training centre and have been doing this for the last 10 years. I really really like my job but the new management are
making it defunct as of the 10th of August Grrr!
They'll probably offer me another role but to be honest I could do with a change.

Yep. Jobs great. Love it, but can be very tiring. Quite hot on a hot day when we're pouring (bronze mostly) - that'll be a furnace (1350
deg C) at 2 feet distance
Had a crew out filming the casting yesterday (second time in about 20 years). May be on telly later in year

I can honestly say that I loved my job, thought it was the real deal. Telling around three hundred staff what to do. Dealing with a budget of around
nineteen million, (pounds that is). And then I retired at the age of fifty four, (had enough in the kitty to do it), been that way for thirteen years
now, and you know what, I wouldn't go back to my job for ten times the pay. Retire as soon as you can, you'll find you just dont have time
for work, spend too much time enjoying yourself. Regards Ray.

Dan,
Our work postman delivered a couple of months back, and had to keep popping the bonnet to reattach the gear selector. The PO wouldn't pay to fix
it. Then they noticed the door was dropping, so lifted it up, and WELDED the hinges in place. Then they couldn't close the door, so they got out
the Birmingham screwdriver and adjusted the bodywork
Never, ever buy anything ex PO.
I wouldn't admit to being a mech for them after that

I was a computer service tech at a Ford assembly plant since 89 or 90. Good job with mostly good people-Only go into my actual employers office ever 5
or 6 years to say hello( I was contracted to ford). Have to say I kind of hated shift work though. One of our vendors asked me if I wanted to work
for them fixing metal and plastic embossers and work directly out of my house. Was not realy that hard of a decsion considering the ford plant is
likely to close in a year or 2, and that I no longer have to write certification exams every time Bill Gates decides to change the colour of a
screen.
There is always a better job out there, the hard part is finding it.
Dale
Thanks

my 14 and11 year old boys 22
