I work for the Old Bill in NZ. 21 years on. :047:

After leaving school did an apprenticeship at Rolls Royce and Qualified as autospark. Then got my P.S.V license and drove Buses for a couple of years. After that I helped to run a family buisness for 12 years. While doing that got my HGV1 so I then went Truck Driving. Now I am Driving Trains which I have done for about 8 years. Its great can do 100mph and not worry about the flashing blue lights.:nana::50:

Drove forklifts in Durban harbour unloading ships until I had enough money to pay for flying lessons.
Now fly 777's for Continental Airlines based in New York (Newark) Must have one of the longest commutes to work, Durban, Jhb, NY before I even start!
Have loved it but the commute can make you a bit ratty for a few days. :Gangsta2_9BI664:

Another IT Monkey me. As the only IT guy employed by a company that has 6 offices in the UK, 1 in the US, 1 in France, 1 in South Africa, 1 in China and 1 in Germany I am basically the IT everything.

From programming to system maintenance, cisco firewalls to PDA's and setting up PC's it all ends up at my door. That said the work is easy enough (too easy at times, it can get a bit boring) and the money is decent. Was still happier when I used to be a milkman though, best job in the world !!!

I went to college and got my spark's NVQ's, but got offered a job that paid better (at the time) to become a telecoms engineer and did that for 2 and half years, then ran a bar for a few months, and even had to dress up as brewster the bear for the kids, but got bored of it so went back to telecoms, while studying for my CCNA, which now makes me an IT geek.

Then got a two week job on the install at the kings cross rebuild, but managed to stay on it for nearly year and a half, when the next install, maintenamce company who came on to the site offered me a job to install the PAVA, after that was done, i was moved on to the maintenance team, which is a wicked little number, so now i have been there for about 3 years, not bad as i was only ment to be on the site for 2 weeks.

Did several different jobs at IT firms after finishing my uni studies (First Germanic Philology and Linguistics, then AI). Then went back to uni to do research and teach in AI. But started to miss the stress of the private sector:104:
Currently, I work as a product manager for a company developing medical software.

Hey!

I'm an apprentice mechanical engineer on a nuclear powerstation.

I work with loads of equipment from gearboxes and huge valves to motors and 16,000hp diesel engines (16 cylinder, 1000hp each)

I also do some fabricating and the occasional bit of tig welding (the easiest kind of welding there is in my opinion)
