So I started life as a electrician, worked on building sites, hated it and one day I just didn't bother going any more (I was young then, no commitments).
Got a job at Gamestation and within six months was the assistant manager. Got sacked for abusing my staff discount to my mates
.
Started work as a driver for a welding wholesalers. They had an engineering workshop where they repaired machines. I decided that's what I want to do. I went from driver > warehouse manager > sales > sales manager and after 10 years at the company became engineer then engineering manager.
A year and a half later the place closed down and I became redundant. I loved it there
.
Now I work for a different company in the same trade but I hate it. Nice boss, nice group of people but mostly all I do is service and calibrate machines rather than repair them, very dull.
I want to move on to pastures new but really don't know what to do with my career now. Any job offers?
Kaz was a dish washer for a year and a restaurant waitress and barmaid for a long time. She gave up work to look after her children after her third.
She went to college to study business and social care and started work in a care home for the elderly. She ended up fulfilling her ambition and became a joint manager of that care home.
She had to give up that job when she was diagnosed with mental health problems (no tolerance given). Now she's a stay at home Mum who works for herself selling Ann Summers gear.
She hopes one day to be an Area Manager whilst I hope one day she learns to bloody drive so I can stop taxiing her to and from the parties
