Love of the Job

[Lee]

Who has a job they genuinely love and what do you do?

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.

I test butt-plugs for a living, it's a right pain in the arse.

Do your CCNA, it's far more interesting than the run of the mill MCSE stuff. Money's better with that on your CV too.

Simon, we deliver everything fro A to Z including all the interesting ones! All our vehicles come with satellite tracking and an anti hijack system. Can still be crap going into various cities when the chemists are doleing out the methadone, it's as if they can smell it when i roll up in the van!

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.

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

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.

I love my job,
I teach ICT in a primary school to fantastic, motivated children.

Oh, and on friday, I break up for 6 weeks!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
