Re: Jobs

Professional Sportsperson. Perhaps not Centre Back for Clogsworthy united of the Eastern League 3rd division but imagine having the ability of Ronaldo, ...except you play for Celtic.. leading them out in the European Cup final.. minute to go...free kick 30 yds out..... Shoots... Sorry getting a bit carried away there. Perhaps that's unrealistic. What about having the ability of Tiger Woods... but Scottish... All square at the final hole as St Andrews, Drives the green leaving a testing 4 foot putt to win The Open....:blah:

Yeah but it would mean I get to take a leaf out of his book, sit on CF all day, and take the mickey out of you.... Jobs a good un lol.....

In all honesty I can't see them wanting to get rid of me from here(at least not for another 3 to 6 months touch wood), but just getting a bit bored.

I don't know about the Salary, but jobs like that tend to have good pay, as they are incredibly boring.

This is why Tube drivers get over 30K

I thought it was because they had a union rep who basically held everyone to ransom every few months to get pay increases?? :)

Bein a train driver isnt all that bad really, just take your mp3 player with you...and sit back most of the time.

Hence my reason for going into project managment.

The best job is something that you like and pays as well.
