General lee 979 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 I like what I do I'm a travelling showmen on the fairgrounds born into it for six generations it's getting harder now but it's the best life I can think of I have to do a few other things in the winter months but that's the way it goes the only way I can think of it being better was if I was doing it in America 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lab 10,979 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Apart from obviously playing for Celtic I've always fancied working with animals. Wanted to be a zoologist when I was at school but realised a lot of brains was needed so dumped that idea. Something like working on the African plains or similar. Either that presenter on Top Gear.... The Lab takes over from Stig...;-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Dream job? I once heard about this bloke in rural India. Can't remember the reasoning behind it now. But, his job was going round the countryside, deflowering virgins. He got paid for it too. I always thought like; " Yeahh. S'pose I'd give that a shot. I mean, if a job needs doing .....

trenchfoot 4,243 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) I worked for 20 years in the pharmaceutical industry, eventually running my own company. I retired through ill health last year - is was bloody sick of it! Sold up and now just scratch about doing fencing, building, pest control etc. best decision I ever made. Just wish I'd done it years ago. If you do a job you always enjoy, you'll never work again Edited May 4, 2013 by trenchfoot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 If you do a job you always enjoy, you'll never work again Just thinking; If I got that job in India? I'd always be hard at work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fieldsportsman 107 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 I'm a tree surgeon, I also do odds and sods at weekend, love it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIDO.1 22,845 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 mole catching, fencing, spraying, pest control, drystone walling.... I can past as many pest control jobs as I want to my brother in law and take a small cut, pick and choose with the rest and work when I want to. Just had 3 weeks helping a mate with lambing, fitting the best pest jobs around it. Love it! cant complain. I know its not easy but if your not happy change it cos you dont get a second chance at life. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Either that presenter on Top Gear.... The Lab takes over from Stig...;-) The same here lab, I wrote to David Attenborough when I was at school asking how to get into a career with animals/ zoology etc .. He took the time to write me a letter back, explaining what qualifications etc I would need, the man is a legend in my eyes that proved to me how decent he is.. Unfortunately I realised quite early that my hobbies and career could never pay enough ( I worked in a fishing shop for a while, travelled around to big matches, shows etc, the boss designed rods for Normark and later Carbon tec, I helped with his testing) I loved it but was skint lol Onto the buildings and built my business up, to hopefully secure my life to enjoy my hobbies... Dream job???? Fishing charters in the Florida Keys I think.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
