TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 What does that entail?Co-ordinating things of a technical nature...I basically work in the technical department of a chemical company that supplies indistrial and domestic use cleaners. Just like I said I would when I was 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 I'm a Senior Systems Engineer which means, quite frankly, nothing at all. I'm certainly not an engineer in the classical sense of the word. I'll just say I work in IT. There we go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daviedingdong Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 I'm a proffesional diver. Just spent the last 8 months in Thailand but soon to be back in Aberdeen working for RGIT Montrose as a safety diver for all you North Sea tigers doing your survival courses ( Is everyone in Aberdeen working for the oil & gas industry?) and yes I do have my dream job!

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 It's surely not that bad?I spend my days barking orders, updating security groups on servers and fixing faults I actually like it in a sort of sick way. I'll be changing in the next week though. Still haven't picked which job to go for. I have the decision to go down the techie route or the management route.I'm still in my honeymoon period, so it's hard to tell whether or not I'm going to enjoy it. I've have to deal with the horrors of reading up about chemical legislations today...If you go down the management route it does give you more opportunity to bark orders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jake Wifebeater Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 Is anyone here doing their dream job?The dream is surely not to have to work at all, but I'm lucky in that my job is something I enjoy doing. Basically, I help to rehouse people on their release from prison. I help them set up home, fill out benefit forms, source furniture, help them paint/decorate, that type of thing. 4 days a week of 9-5, cracking pay, and sometimes weekend overtime if I feel like it. It's rewarding in the non-financial sense too, it's good to see someone turn their life around for the better.Sometimes it involves working with sex offenders, and I get a twisted kick out of building up a good working relationship with the most reviled people in society. I love it when people who have kids ask me what I do for a living... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Stax Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 Is anyone here doing their dream job?Although not strictly 'making art' as a career working in arts admin, and project managing for an Arts consultancy ranks a very very close second. As well as being the Grampian Adviser for this crew >> - Cultural Enterprise Office Home Page - << (seemed easier to give a link than try to explain) So I am pretty fucking close to doing a dream job. If I had known what was possible through an art post-grad coupled with running a music venue then I suppose I am in dream positions, other than being affa minted and surrounded by lovely people (women)Plugging away in an arts studio whilst recording music and playing and promoting (good) gigs is/was the dream. I get to indulge these though so no complaints I am also a Joiner but that slipped out of the list some time ago. Hit my thumb far too many times mid winter on a building site, nae fine aat like!
