General Manager responsible for strategic direction for an outsourcing company that specialises in document management. Probably means nothing to you and believe me it doesnt mean much to me either!
Basically I work long hours, constantly travel and try to avoid becoming another corporate casualty as my american employers do their best to cut costs again and again. Still pays the bills and keeps me the owner of a lurvly 1000SS which Ive just had race cans fitted on (Two Brothers Racing - Fantastic!)

I'm a Professional Inventory Clerk, I provide professional services to Landlords and Letting Agents.

Afte years of working for Estate Agents I got sick of the long hours, abuse from Landlords and Tenants and crap pay so I decided to start my own business.

I've been running Maple inventories for a year now and although I still work long hours with crap pay its the best feeling in the world being my own boss and working from home.

I even get thanked for the work I do which makes it all worth while! :D

Telecoms engineer man and boy!!!!

12 years in the Royal Signals - joined as a sprog at 16 as an RTG (Mostly brilliant, but I was lucky with my postings.....)

2 years at Vodafone as a field engineer till the bean counters got involved and laid most of us off - I was told by a director that I was fine, then I had a phone call at about 6 p.m. while in the pub to tell me that "you were told the wrong information".....Tossers...I'm with Orange now funnily enough.....

2 years as a 3G base station field engineer - enjoyable but for the F. off big green van I had to drive around...all for a laptop and a signal generator......Just the ticket when you have to commission a site on a roof top in Oxford street.....Not.

9 months contracting at a big new round place in Cheltenham....Sssshhhhh........:ninja:

Now I find myself working in Iraq! Our company provides comms solutions for the MOD. Do about 6 weeks on and then about 2 weeks back home. Good laugh as most of us are ex forces and it pays the bills (by quite a bit which is the only reason I am doing it.....). So far have kept all my body parts intact.......:o

Fascinating thread this, seems like a lot of people work in telecommunications.

Me, - at times I feel like an inspector for the central reservation of the M25, - there is a tiny kids teddy just along from junction 13, clockwise right now, saw it last week.

Actually I am lucky to work in the best industry in the world, - the education of kids industry. I advise schools and LEA’s on how to integrate computers and technology into teaching curriculum, which in reality means I am a translator; I convert techie waffle into teacher speak. At one end of the scale I get to work with schools that get placed in “special measures” or “serious weakness” by the OFSTED baffoons, on the other end I get to work with private junior schools charging £20,000 a year fees.

thats the one!
