What jobs do you do?

[Nick P]

With all this talk of spending £6000 on polish and the likes, i have decided that i am in the wrong job......firstly, what job (if any!!) do you do?
Second, is it easy to get into?
Last do you wish to employ me so I may buy expensive polish too?

I'll start off by saying I'm a Sgt in HM Forces...........so i'll now wait for the job offers to flood in

financial advisor...

however I don't spend any money at all on polish and even when I own expensive cars (usually during the summer ) I hardly ever wash them let alone autoglym them!

I am a University student. However I do alot of work for the family business which is Plant & Machinery, i mainly order parts via the internet, deal with customers who contact us using email, type up the invoicing, organise & print photographs of jobs carried out by the company etc etc, anything that involves using the computer basically.

I can also drive excavators, tractors, dumpers & articulated dump trucks if im off Uni and one of the drivers call in sick. (Yes i have a license to do so )

P.S. The most i have spent on polish is around £40 off the telly lol good enough for me...

Formerly a Ski/Bike Shop manager, currently a full time student and if you saw my truck the last thing that would come to your mind would be polish.

Minimax I'll race you to see who can be the most lazy.

I have the most boring job in the world. I am a surveyor and fight a never ending battle against the government to reduce business rates assessments.

Anyone need theirs reducing - drop me a line

I'm a motoring journalist () for a fleet industry magazine.
I got into it after spending five years as a reporter on local and regional newspapers, then decided I wanted to work with cars and applied to everywhere I could think of.
It's often quite boring day-to-day, but a lot of fun at other times. Plus lots of cars to drive.
Pay is appallingly bad tho.

Which bit?

[Greg_D]

apparently lots, realistically next to nothing

i don't even wash my car, let alone wax it. i brought one of those all in one washing gun things that means that you don't even need to chamoix your car, and i have only used it twice in 3 months.

ps serious answer, recruitment
