Living the Dream lol
 
See if any of you can top this for a boring job, I make cardboard boxes, all day, every day, millions of em! I even have a third level qualification as a Boxmaker! There was even an episode of the Simpsons where Bart visited a box factory, and was asked would he like to do this when he grows up, and he replied "Its always been the dream, man!"

So I am living the dream :laughing5:

But what may be of interest to the forum, I am also a Steel Rule Cutting Die maker by trade, and so have made cutting dies that stamp out gaskets, labels etc. (and boxes of course!), so if anyone would like to know anything in that area just ask. I unfortunately do not have access to any equipment to make any cutting dies any more.

I'm a specialised plant engineer working mainly in the gas industry (both on-shore and off-shore) but also doing water and hydro work. I hire, sell and maintain computerised welding equipment for welding plastic pipes, anything from 25mm to 1600mm. I work mainly in Scotland and Ireland but sometimes in Europe and occasionally in more far flung exotic places like Cuba, Fiji and Azerbaijan.
I'm just back from a few days up in Wester Ross, fantastic roads and weather and I'm stuck in a van being passed by loads of bikes!!!!!!! It's not fair.

How I earn my crust!
 
I am a Software/solution performance Analyst currently contracting at one of Australia's large banks.

The work is interesting, the politics in banks suck though!

Keeping me in motorbikes
 
I work in the electricity industry, mainly commissioning new equipment onto the 400kV transmission system, you know, new generating stations and transformers etc. It can be stressful, signing on the dotted line to say that multi-million pound equipment is safe to be put into service and also issueing safety documents to allow work on high voltage bits and pieces. Been doing it since I left school, cough years ago.:080:
