hi guys
just wondering what you do for a living? are you in full time employment?, do you go to college? are you a full time dj or producer?
im a field service engineer for ophthalmic products
I’m a Student these days.
Was a Manager in a Phone Company for a good few years. Total change in direction for me.
Thats the one good thing about the recession - chance to do something different. We moved when we had our kid, so things still looked good on the job front when we arrived… but theres nothing like a year on the dole to help you make a few life choices.
4 year course - hoping to go into the Social side of things when I’m let loose.
Prospects for a job seem to be pretty good. We’ll see if we have a country left after all the cutbacks though. before we start worring about future employment. I mightn’t have to bother! LOL :hehe:
what course are you doing?
ive tried to have a change in directions many times but im still in this industry after 13 years but ive worked my way into a fairly good position so its cool and it pays the mortgage and my s.a subs
I always wanted to be a Sound Engineer & just found myself in my Career at the end of the day. Mortgages / Kids blah,blah,blah - XX years go by very quickly.
Still - wouldnt change anything. No regrets. Just want to use my time as wisely as possible. Work to Live - not Live to Work. Thats always been my motto, but guess I really mean it now! LOL
Ah no… I’ve v.lucky that I got the chance to change. I saw a guy on a Train one day with Grey hair - commuting… probably about 60 years old - still working. I thought to myself that I didnt want to end up like that Guy.
So that was how I woke up… Then we moved.
Its a degree in Social Care. Pretty interesting. Get to do all sorts… Sociology, Psychology etc… and go on placement to different places. Been a little slow this year, but generally not too boring at all. Its a very wide field. :D

man i thought you were doing a music/production type course
I have just started a 2 year course in music technology at college, main reason I have taken it is because they teach synthesis and I get to find out abit more about the business side of things, the rest of it seems to be made up of thngs I already know so it’s a abit of a walk in the park!

awesome! the internet is a great way of meeting like minded desperate women
Just started a 2 year advanced Digital Musician course which is pretty good. Also starting working voluntary for a local company who teach 11-19yr olds qualifications in media, like film, music, animation, photography, etc.
Been doing voluntary work for Tilllate.com for over 3 years as well, not to mention voluntary for local DAB radio which i’ve been doing for 5 years.
I do like working voluntary as its great experience, is enjoyable and looks great on the CV lol.
Looking for part time work just to help pay the bills but not actually having much luck with that.
Im a quality manager for an engineering company that produces springs for railways and aircraft.
Wow… Its really interesting reading all these.
We’re a right ****ing random bunch. It would be gas if there was a Doctor, or a Lawyer or Policeman or something. Did I read that there was someone in the RAF here the other day? Mad.
Imagine if someone in the Taliban was following the RAF Guy on Soundcloud :hehe:
Its a crazy ****ing small world we live in Chaps.
Keep 'em coming

Looking at your Avatar Mate… I’ve always thought of you as living in Devon or Kent or something, drinking beer in your garden all day long
