Gave up driving 30 years ago as a mugs game, but what goes around…
Started out as an electronics engineer and learnt to drive in the T.A, moved to the smoke and did a little tipper/skip work before going back into electronics. The next 20 odd years spent in the computer industry, field engineer, systems analyst, self employed trainer, etc, etc, till I just got fed up with the whole thing…
In the mean time I’d moved back to where I belong, spent a few years bumming about, odd contract here and there but most of the time having a laugh, till someone decided I had to get a job.
So here I am, got my class 1 a year ago, did a month or 2 on the trollies and been tramping ever since… I love it, but she want me home cause I’m having way too much fun
And to you folks who’d give this crack up tomorrow all I’d say is it’s not always greener on the other side, think about it…
What other industry could give you the flexibility like this one, to be able to work as little or as often as you like whenever you want.
No real agro from anyone and no expectations whatsoever, to the extent no-one bats an eye if I say I can’t read…
And most every day is an adventure, or could be… I believe there’s a job out there for everyone.
Oh, and dare I mention remunerations
