Who enjoys their job, and what do you do?
Me - I don't. In fact, I pretty much resent having to do it
. I am working towards changing this, but financial stupidity on my part is making it take longer than it should.
You forgot to mention what you do?Me - I don't. In fact, I pretty much resent having to do it
. I am working towards changing this, but financial stupidity on my part is making it take longer than it should.I crash test child seats in cars (some rather nice cars aswel) & also aircraft seats (not in cars obviously) & have worked for the same company for 18 years. I enjoy the work but the pay is crap.
For the most part, I do. I'm a draughtsman (ok, technically a CAD monkey, but I got trained up on the boards and taught how to produce quality drawings by hand, a skill that's been sadly lost).
Have worked in various sectors, but have been in Civil Engineering for the last 10 years or so. I'm earning pretty good money and the work is mostly interesting. The only downside is the lack of jobs closer to home (when I got laid off 18 months ago, all the positions around Manchester were about half the salary I'd been on. I've been working 130 miles away for the last 4/5 years.

t so it can't be that hard to do.

I am the Construction Site Manager on a new coal fired power plant in Indonesia, been here 7 months now and love it, love the daily challenges and the problems thrown at me. Ive been in Asia now for 10 years and love it, love the work, love the place and all that comes with it. I visit the UK three or four times a year just to get a reality check and realise that I am working in the right part of the globe, no way would I ever go back to the UK to work again. Have worked in Vietnam, Thailand, Vietnam again then here in Indonesia...
