First Job you had and what you do now?

1st full time job was HR intern at the House of Commons and now I'm a pot washer.... something just isn't right there.
 
1st- PT job... a kimbler (prize for anyone who knows what that is!)

Now- Lazy b*****d postie.
 
I thought my first job was going to be rather glamourous when I was asked to earn some cash on the potato picker at a farm down the road from my folks'.

I turned up on a bitterly frosty morning expecting to climb aboard a magnificent piece of machinery and while away a few enjoyable hours chatting to my chums.

The reality was that I spent the day literally on my hands and knees in the freezing mud, crawling behind the spud-picker and collecting the small tatties that it had missed - oh the glamour.

I'm now an architect, so with the recession have come full circle and am once again up to my neck in shite....

Well done!
Gave me a lot of job satisfaction knowing that every one I did would cause pain and misery to some poor sod trying to remove it.

Only young but dads got a jewellery business so been learning about jewellery all my life really. First job and current job = Jeweller : )
 
First real job was a an apprentice joiner for a building company in sale. I absolutley loved it, i got £100 a week in 1991, when all my mates were getting £27.50 y.t.s money. (One day when we were supposed to be in work, i banged the boss's neice, then we drunk his bottle of 40 year old whiskey he had been saving for his retirement and spewed all over his couch) The cheeky **** fired me!

Now, i dress in flourescent orange and point at people to do things.
 
YT at a Council whilst also working p\t in a furniture shop - you couldn't live on £25 a week, but damn, life was good! Now Finance Director for local authority, which just goes to show that money doesn't make you happy!
