I'm still a field service engineer fixing x - ray, metal detectors and checkweighers. I travel UK and worldwide.
Last few months I've been to Ivory Coast, Ghana x 2, Cameroon, South Africa, Turkey, Oman and next Tuesday it'll be Norway.
The money is ok but the hours are shocking.
If money was no problem I'd do f*ck all except relax, grow me veggies and the occasional TD.
I'm still happily married to the lovely Ziggy with 4 kiddies, Lucy, Sydney, Oscar and Jerry. There all moggies by the way.
I'm a software developer for a consulting firm in London, great pay & I really enjoy what I do so no complaints there.
If money was no object I'd probably buy a farm with a load of land and make MotoX tracks, a go kart track etc. basically a giant playground.
Im a process operator on an oil refinery,been in that job for ten years now,which has gone so fast !! Its quite a monotonous job where not a lot happens and hopefully will stay that way regards loss of containment !!
I have a trade which sometimes i forget about,in mechanical engineering and would really like to combine the two skill sets and develop further down a avenue that would see the two disciplines compliment each other,well thats the plan anyway
