The world is the mollusc of your choice.

What’s a property master?

 

Do you collect post menopausal Italian ladies per chance?

Cheap!

 

The thing is sometimes you can change, tho can be difficult/ expensive to retrain, or be able to get a job in another area that you’re already working.

I’ve worked on an army camp in the stores, been a fork lift driver, worked in warehouses, worked in local govt writing and auditing quality management systems, am a qualified business studies teacher and now working as a plumber/gas heating engineer

 

You just need to be flexible, never stop dreaming, and not be too much of a slave to the wage.
(Or an Idealistic lefty liberal as I get called more often )

Started off doing maths and biology and chemistry and thinking I’d be an ecological warrior saving the world by studying ecosystems and how the world worked naturally. Got sidetracked by photography, and somehow ended up as a film and television sound recordist after a stint in art college. Didn’t like the London life so worked with old people in a care home; and now have vaguely come back to my first love of the outdoors and nature and ecology by growing trees for a living.

The choices we make in school shouldn’t necessarily set in stone the rest of our lives, but I agree we do tend to squeeze and squeeze variety out of the younger generation, until they are dumped out into the adult world of work following a very narrow path.

 

Please?

 

That's pretty impressive really I'm sure lots of people would like the variety of jobs you have had, fortunately I have had my share of career changes and enjoyed all of them to a point. It does give me a bit of a life story and I have learned to deal with all sorts of people on different levels.

 

I like my present job, four days a week going from farm to mill sleeping in an all mod cons truck in peaceful settings three nights a week and having zero responsibility other than doing my job properly. I was asked very recently to do the same job for another company £1000 for a 5.5 day week sleeping out for 5 nights and I just thought - 'No. why would I want to do that at my age?'

I also get called a lefty idealist, but I care not one jot.
