i once had 2 1/2 weeks off work because of a car crash... it nearly sent me mad...... daytime telly is mindnumbing... so as soon as i could see straight, i got taxis to the office, and scooted round at work on an office chair. my knee had been bolted back together...

ps. why do so many people hate their jobs??????

As much as I hate my job, being off work is always boring but being there is boring too, I do hate my job too though, although I've applied for a new one, should hear back soon I hope, been in shops too long :cry:

Edit: £10.5p not brilliant? I'm on £6.23 and work 21.5 hours a week, try living on that when there is no overtime conad lol.

what are you, a proctologist????

[conad]

im a fabricator, and for my trade, that poor.... really poor, but i can work up to 84 hours a week, based on a std 39 hr week and the rest on time and a half or double. a mate of mine (also a fabricator) is on £14 an hour, needless to say im trying to get in his place lol

edit: just got the joke mowgli.... very good

[wwmnw]

To be honest, right now I'd be ecstatic with £10p/h, a mate of mine is always rubbing it in as he earns £12p/h and on weekends can earn £14 and £20+ p/h.

Oh what I would do to go back in time knowing what I know now and sticking in at school :cry: lol

on a bank holiday, if i work, im on £31.50 ph (not that im rubbing it in lol)

[sparkie1401]

ive been off work since december 15th and its nice to be home as im away alot but im ready to go back now

im lucky in the fact i am paid whilst im off, jan/feb is just quiet

[wwmnw]

I knew there was good reason to dislike you conad :cry: lol. Nah I always say, if you work hard and stick at what you do best, then you deserve what you earn. I hate my job but have no skills, and no one will take me on in a skilled job so I cant learn new skills.

So I'm going to join the forces (as soon as I lose weight) go to exotic country's, meet new people, then shoot them.

[lewisvalver]

im on £11.50 an hour on the books as a joiner and thats my basic rate,can earn anything from 500-800 a week if im doing price work,my mate is a fabricator and he comes out with a good wage

Now there's an idea, I should play the race card lollol

[mowgli]

believe the army ads.... you'll most likely be painting stones white in a camp in gloucestershire

[wwmnw]

I was thinking more the Marines personally, if I can ever get that fit.

[draper]

my job sucks, making plythene film/bags is boring as hell, shift work has lost its novelty now aswell

the pay/blokes i work with make up for it tho and ill only be here another year, 2 at the most so meh

[JShannon]

lol @ wwmnw. Racist lol

What you were saying about knowing what you know now. I was an electrician(apprentice) and when everything went tits up in the recession, i went to my local college. they put me on a one year university access course for people who had been out of school 3 yrs or more. I now have 3 condtional offers, all based around teaching, for liverpool next year.!

Just to let anyone know, its not really THAT hard to change careers, provided you can afford to work P/T bla bla bla.

I earn 6.15 an hour doing about 36 (was 57) hours a week with a flat, 3 kids, car, various other bills to pay & my missus isn't at work right now because of baby girl :(

Times are hard for me money wise, just finished emptying the savings account :(

Im a self employed carpet fitter, my and my step-dad contract for carpet right. On a busy day i take home just over £100, but Januarys slow, so todays around £20 lol. Its all good though, im only 20, so its a good feeling to know i earn the most out of my mates:d

I can earn anything to upto £20 an hour, thats probably what ill earn in an hour today, but thats all ill earn! :(

[Jack]

I enjoy my job, £10ph sitting around watching daytime TV lol

Go into the Navy first, its easier to get into the marines via there. Plus you'll get a feel for the life first.

[kc_08]

Does it work that way?

[Jack]

Yep, I know people who move round within each service all the time. Was talking to an ex-marine the other day actually and he'd done all sorts within the Navy bothe before and after doing the marine thing.

I didn't ask what instrument he played though lol

[wwmnw]

lollollol I remember while at school we had the Coldstream Guards come in, and they told us you can change your job every 6 months (I think he said 6 months) anyway, I asked my granddad (he was in the army) and he corrected that, apparently you can request to change your job every 6 months, but have to have a valid reason for it.

[mowgli]

Does it work that way?

probably not, but we get to use loads of gay jokes on you

[wwmnw]

probably not, but we get to use loads of gay jokes on you

Lol don't let me not being in the navy stop you :gay:

[mowgli]

join the army, and feel a man


join the navy and feel several men

when in trouble, a ratio of 8 tins of tesco value beans to a decent loaf of bread, 2 slices per tin (dont get tesco value bread, itll fcuk your digestive track). rationed over 7 days (double rations on wednesday as a midweek pick-u-up) for about £3.40. if your in super trouble, youve got 12p value noodles u can ration, but trust me, youll get sick of them and develop and unhealthy rage associated with meal times lol
