What do you all do for A Carrerr?
 
Tell  Everyone what you do & whats  involved in your Job.
I have changed my Carrer a few times in my Life.
When I left School many years ago I worked on a family farm for 25 years. 
We have Cattle  Sheep   Deer & Goats.  
I loved it too.  
Then I left The farm due to variety of reasons & moved to The City where I worked as Houseman in Big Hotel  which was fun too.
Then  I  became a Delivery Person helping out with deliverys of Eggs for a Poultry Farm.  I did that for 10 years before I gave it up as Promised all kinds of things that never happened. 
I  setup my own delivery run selling to private people & got to know lots of people  but I gave it up as got offered a new Job  emptying Rubbish Bins.  So Im now a Private Contractor & self Employed.  I contract to A Company.

Currently not working. Left my local DHB last December. But am a Pharmacy Tech by profession. Couldn't handle the toxicity of the hospital anymore. Nor the bs coming from management.Decided it was not worth stuffing my health over, so I resigned. I was one of 5 that quit in 5 months. Since I have left, another 6 have since gone too. Only thing I miss is the money, as the others that left last year and I are a tight group of friends still.

Now gone no forwarding address Jeepers, I thought having 4 was hard enough. Mind you, I think having all girls made it a little easier somehow. They are all close too, which also helps. Thank God, coz having 4 rowing girls could have made for an 'interesting' life.

I don't know what that means either. One definition of a consultant - is someone who you pay a large amount of money, to tell you what you already know.

I've only had one occupation - started my apprenticeship in 1970, and 52 years later still work as a mechanic. It's been everything I need. One occupation, many jobs - I did count one day...1970 to 1990, 20 years, 20 jobs. The last 32 hasn't been much different. The advantage of having a job in demand, just walk in, walk out, walk in, walk out.
