You need to start from the bottom Ruby if its what you want to do, everyone has went through it
Should have went up for that ghillie interview last year, big missed opportunity there. These are the kind of jobs you should be going for, even if its just 6 months work its better than 6 months putting gherkins on buns (lol had to get a dig in there as well , still think its fookin hilarious you working at Mac's )
Best of luck mate and Ill keep an eye out as usual.
