Love of the Job
 
Who has a job they genuinely love and what do you do?:)

NeilD 17-07-2007 04:35 PM

I really like mine most of the time. I deliver pharmaceuticals to various places, hospitals, docs, pharmacy's, air/army bases, schools, nursing homes, private homes, tv studios, vets and a few more i can't remember.

I am a full time dad on my own to five kids, and this is the most rewarding job I have ever done.

Is that part of the training?

I think that sounds a very important job, and life changing for so many young people who may not realise it at the time. There are more and more asbo teens than ever, is that because people are forced to work harder to pay for life that care has been lost and these teens don't know right from wrong?

I work for a Manufacturing/Distribution company of counting, timing, measuring and control equipment. My role is Logistics Manager, and I am in charge of the packing room (goods in/out), my main skill is in Import/Export worldwide and my responsibities have grown over the years to put me where I am now. I enjoy what I do, but more importantly I like who I work with - if it weren't for that then that could make a good job into a crappy job, for me anyway.

Your all very lucky, i have no interest in mine any more:D

I haven`t worked less than 200 mile from home for the last 4 years. I really do need to change my job, its easier said than done though!

LiamD 17-07-2007 05:43 PM

Half my days I deal with the absolute scum of society, which the other half (that I work with) lock up.... :D

It's fun though, very busy and at times very stressful as it's a job with very high responsibility. Every day is totally different, which, as a glorified office worker, is pretty cool.

LEGEND 17-07-2007 06:12 PM

Well my job you can't really call a job, but it is a start.;) Anyway i am a paperboy and i deliver papers to houses before school everyday including weekends. I only get paid 15 pounds a week, but it gets me out of bed every morning and it also keeps me fit. The best part is i can get time off anytime that i want, all i have to do is ask the papershop to get somebody to cover for me, or to get my bro to do it for me.:rolleyes:

VintageRacer 17-07-2007 06:25 PM

I have 2 jobs, one which pays the bills and one which I have passion for.
I enjoy both of them (most of the time), but there is definitely one I would give up if I won the lottery.
I teach science and sell lingerie via my web shop. I'll leave you to guess which is which.

Southwell 17-07-2007 07:42 PM

Iam a network/computer technician, ive only been there 8 months and it's been a steep learning curve but i enjoy it and the experience should really help later in life. Next on my agenda is to do either the Cisco networking course or Microsoft certification.

Bathy 17-07-2007 08:44 PM
