Your career history

[Smooth Operator 10]

What jobs have you had in your lifetime?

 

Mine go like this:

 

1: Pizza delivery driver (enjoyed it in my year out and got to meet/wrestle with some belting fanny)

2: Kirby Hoover salesman (milf and gilf fanny-friendly job)

3: Admin monkey for the Pensions Service (shite)

4: Hotel porter (best most enjoyable job I've ever had, even more fanny opportunities that #1

5: Junior manager for an agency that is soon going to be replaced! (Again shite)

 

I'm guessing most people have had a lot more varied and interesting jobs than me so lets hear about them.

On the SMO fanny-scale, neither stacks up particularly well. Pulled wor lass in the second job, but thats not saying much as you'd not touch anything at BK with a ten foot barge pole.

 

A ten foot barge pole being quite appt as well.

I asked you this in another thread but you didn't reply - what kind of nursing do you do? Thought it was some kind of trauma theatre but I'm probably wrong.

Anaesthetics and recovery. Work mainly in general and obstetric theatres but go through to A&E when there's any major trauma etc and do ITU/Critical Care transfers.

3. Kirby Hoovers (same as SMO!!) I quit after one day, it was utter shit.

4. Landscape gardener

 

Got a job interview tomorrow for some Graduate Management thing at Tesco. The job does nothing for me to be honest, I never had any plans of going into retail but I just applied for a load of graduate jobs in desperation. Got through 2 stages already, the final stage is tomorrow which is an all day Assessment Centre and interview. For now the bank balance speaks louder than any other concerns, need the money. I'll blag it.

Ah, was kinda right then. Not really sure what I want to do when I qualify, probably surgery or anaesthetics though.

I don't get it......as a trainee, how do you sit as a judge?

 

I just imagine Wolfy sat there in his high chair and rattle.

He cuts down trees, he wears high heels, suspenders and a bra.

1) Morrisons - on the chickens and that. Low wage, the dept was always boiling because of the ovens and hot plate, and the managers were wankers.

2) Stanley Racing - cashier. Canny job, pretty flexible, let me go to the match when we were at home, the only low point was probably being robbed at gunpoint.

3) Information Officer. For the last 6 years, was getting the chop in March, although looking safer. Probably the most scatty brained info officer you'll ever meet, which is probably why they were chopping me.

Nah, Magistrates' have no legal qualifications, theyre in their position by virtue of their life experience, assisted by a clerk (who is legally qualified). It's the sitting in judgement as a youngster I cannit fathom.

 

Agreed tho, I prefer the thought of him as a bespectacled lumberjack.
