Work as a Class 1 driver for the NHS Supply Chain.

It's a bit different to what I was doing 3 years ago, my main trade was a four colour planner and retoucher in the print which I served a 4 year apprenticeship, but all the skills went out of the job once computers came on the scene!

Love the driving, being your own boss on the road, apart from the idiotic drivers that cut you up! :p

Cant believe Ive never seen this thread! Im currently a Student :beer::beer: and Barman :beer::beer: :laugh:

Before that I worked as a cabinet maker, designing and making bespoke furniture. Although with the recession the buiness was struggling and I decided it was as good a time as any to 'jump ship before it sinks' and change career hence the uni. Hoping by the time I come out the economy will be on a boom!

Heres some examples of stuff Ive made or worked on.

Do miss the feeling of satisfaction after a days work looking at what youve achieved although dont miss the winters when the workshop could be below zero and only reach 12deg after having the wood burner going all day!!

Still get cheap parts for my car, and got the mechanics to help with any silly probs I cant fix.
