LOGIE Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Just been thinking lately about changing my job as im bored stupid of driving trucks, im not very qualified just some basic GCSE's I spent my first 14 years of employment in the ARMY, infantry and my last 5 driving artic lorries up and down the M6 which bores me to tears and it gets worse in winter. Im 36 now and wondering "am I going to be stuck doing this all my days"? Have any of yous changed your career lately or thought about it?

JakeG Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 How old are you and what level have you played at before? 22, Northern Ireland contracts only go to semi pro here, so when I was at a club called glenavon I was classed as semi pro, unfortunately like most over here I found Drink and when my dad took ill I turned down chances to go to England, then put on weight and here I am, so I think iv still a chance now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I'm an Engineer and was looking to go to lead Engineer, but now taken on some scheduling and coordinator roles so will be moving more towards that now I think. As long as I get paid lots I don't mind - although I love my job so maybe I don't know what it's like being in a high paid job I hate!

Josh Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Lol at everyones' ideas I work in a call centre on a helpline dealing with shares. Don't enjoy it at all and the only jobs getting back to me are for similar things (which I'm not going to do). Anyone want to employ me? You could even employ me to post for you, if you want a high post count. Only 1p per post! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCK10 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Pretty much in the same position mate. My current job bores the life out me, and it doesn't help much that I'm paying almost half my days wages on travel just to get there. I need to find something new soon as well, and hopefully not in Scotland I want to be paid for pissing about with supras during the day and playing ps3 at night. heaven. I like your thinking, although I'd prefer Xbox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
