Ive got it, you collect shopping trolleys at Sainsbury's  

We don't have Sainsbury's in Corkonia, the trolleys in the picture below are from the car park of Smiths Toy store where my cousin Sandra works!

I'm a DJ however I've hung up the headphones for the past few years   8)

Funk & Soul be my forte like :wink:

This is a timely thread - I got made redundant today (!)  11yrs at same place so probably time for something new. Am (was!) Marketing Manager for a company that sells tableware. Very boring, but pay was pretty good, and my choice of company car (A3 S-Line).

Merry Christmas or what (!)

11 years must make for a pretty good redundancy package! steve mclaren was layed off after 18 months and he got ?2,000,000!!   8O

8O  i make that about ?1900000,99999p too much for that clown! in Russian he would have got sent to the bottom of the Bairant sea!

so m6m62 is due about ?14,666,666 for his 11 years service!

MAKE A CLAIM!!!  :wink:

im a full time student,

do part time work at waitrose, used to work at Royal Bank Of Scotland and absolutely hated it.

my dad owns a hire car, and a bus company in which he does private hire and school runs, the private hire car is for the time in between!

im a paramedic

That's cool. I wan't to train to be an ambulance technician in the new year, any tips or advice you can offer?.
I work as a delivery driver for Iceland at the moment, It's ok but I really would like to contribute a little more and have some job satisfaction.
Some of you have cool jobs though.

you will have to be quick if you want to train as a technician as the are being replaced by a beast known as an ecsw or driver they have less skills than a tech. my trust no longer trains techs, but if you want, you can go back to uni and do a paramedic degree and join as a paramedic, and do the easiest  job in the world   hth

As usual that makes no sense at all to have a less skilled person driving the ambulance???!!!. Just another way to save money I suppose. I was gonna wait till next year when my son starts full time school before i start training. Is a paramedic degree the usual 3 years or is it shorter?, the thing that appealed to me with the tech job is the short training time scale with the oppertunity to become a paramedic later. I'm still gonna do it but I can't go back to school for 3 years cuz money won't allow.

8O  can we see a developing trend here………………DONT start me on PCSO`s………………..and now we gonna get a potentially weaker ambulance service!  what happened to the "golden hour" the difference between life and death? the difference between police gathering good evidence to gain a conviction?

at this rate by 2015 the whole country will have twice the emergency services capability but with HALF THE SKILLS needed to do the jobs……….this government is a joke  

for the cost of 10 PCSO`s you could have 8 fully trained police officers……..for the cost of 10 ambulance "drivers" you could probably have 8 paramedics! this is getting ridiculous……

Ok People put the guns(and Knives) down I am employed as an AO at HMP the DVLA lol ops:

i think people go for pcso jobs because they want to be proper coppers and see it as a foot in the door if they do it for a year or so. others maybe just like the felling of power they get without any of the resposibility! duno if thats the same for the ambulance service. :dontknow:

Im the youngest ever driving test examiner.

Hah just kidding  :roll:  

Can you imagine that though 17 year old examiner

SMART repairer, I,ve got my own Chipsaway franchise!

Greenkeeper (lawn mower jockey), Hayling Island golf club, best job ever in the summertime 8)

i think the ou  are starting a course soon so you could do it while still working in your present job, but you are right the technician route was quicker and less hassle

im in webdesign.  I designed google and am worth millions as a result.

Seriously though, I'm a barista while I save up for my own coffee shop.

My friend is a barista with his own mobile coffee stall:

Seems like a good, flexible way to be a barista.

so im guessing ath this point that barista isnt just a lazy 'street/text' way of spelling barrister?

isnt topoftherange going to feel silly!  :wink:

i thought so too, dave :dontknow:

turns out it is someone who knows how to make coffee
