Whats your occupation?

Wow cool web site, wouldnt mind a nice photo of me and the other half (providing I still have one! Apparently your boring me to tears I'm going to bed! Is not an appropriate end to a telephone conversation! Who knew?!) done for the fire place, I'm a diagnostic technician for a vauxhall garage, been a mechanic with ford and vauxhall garages for nearlly 13 years now, branched off into the electronic and diagnostic side of it a couple of years back now, lots of hard work but very rewarding, I get things to look at when other people cant fix them and to spend the time and get them sorted is very rewarding, do a lot of work with programming and wiring but I've always been interested in that so its all good at the mo, moneys not the best but where is?

I made the fantastic and foolish decision to leave my role as a supervisor in the construction industry and go to uni to be a surveyor...
fantastic because i would be unemployed by now if i had stayed - foolish because im still training for the construction sector - and there is NO work!!!

Been a retail manager all my life, the last one being with Homebase, now i do security for the UKBA based at the Sheffield Home Office building. Would love to be doing something else, though i doubt i would get the same amount of money for doing very little.
in my spare time i am the sy5's resident mechanical expert, hence all the links i post to various mods for your cars ect, i have always been very interested in cars, at the early age of 9 i built a trolley & fashioned a dynamo from my raleigh tomahawk to work indictors on it, all the kids on our estate where really very jealous, & the interest has just never left me
