erm well, currently i am a project manager on a massive ecohome with a few more to do in the pipeline. BUT until this one kicks off and since july i have been occupying myself doing odds and sods and generating work for myself on the land it is to be built within, and since mid december i have been paid to work on my project/rebuild the boss's landy lol lol

The joys of working direct for the client i suppose, sounds cushty but it truly isnt, after 17 years of towing the line and grafting/pushing myself hard for a living, i am finding this hard to cope with mentally more than anything. but its one of those things where you know the direction you are going in, just the ride is abit slow at the start

I work in a factory making windows,im a window fitter by trade but no jobs going doing that round here so its factory instead.The pay is utter garbage to what im used to,its a soul destroying environment to work in and its the same sh1t different day.Same bitching going on by the same fukktards every day.
We are currently doing 30hour weeks because its so quiet.So my current wageslips come in handy as spare bog roll.
On the bright side i am in employment (just..) and earn a wage even if it is only just above minimum wage.I feel for those who have been made redundant,i have been layed off from 3 jobs this last 12 months prior to this one.The benefits are really hard to get aswell.
