What do you guys do for a living?

Me, I'm a Project Manager at a Software House just outside Solihull in the West Midlands. Been here for nearly 4 years now - cool job.

Hey guys,

I left IT about 8 years ago and went into large scale construction health & safety, become self employed doing it and still loving it.

Electronics Engineer doing it for 19 years qualified for the last 10.

Should be good at it by now but really losing interest, would love to change but too much of a risk at the moment.

Trying to re-kindle it but modding xboxs fixing speccys/C64 but cannot seem to fit it in with 3 kids running round. Well 2 running and one jiggling around on the floor.

Blimey, my life seems so boring in comparison to you guys, I am a store manager for a major food retailer. No two days the same, pay isn't too bad and it pays the bills.

Hey ho !

Re: What do you guys do for a living?

 Currently an unemployed dole-ite, enjoying plenty of free time to play games but hating the fact I have no food and can't pay bills...

Before that I worked in several Video Game Retailers, including Virgin Megastore (where I was head of Edinburgh's Game Dept. for all of 9 months) and Game...

Before all of that I was doing the typical waster's favourite course, an NC in Media Studies followed by an HNC in TV and Video Production....

 Let's Go, Mr Driver!
