Lift too many Fingers? You mean there are more of me, oh no, the world is rapidly becoming a scary place! I had no qualifications before I started my job, well apart from doing ok in high school, straight in as an Aircraft Engineering apprentice at 17, lots of exams and work and a good few years later and I'm a licenced aircraft engineer and do a technical support role for a large airline with lots of large Boeing aircraft. Quite interesting, but you need to have a good mechanical inclination to do it, what kind of job do you want. I actually wanted to be a physiotherapist, but just got into something else. |

Yes thats the stuff - we keep the postman happy!
My job basically entails planning and controlling work from print through to the actuall mailings. So basically I have to schedule and keep running about 50 machines on a 24 hour 3 shift work pattern making sure they are manned and keep all the jobs in schedule - believe it or not there are very tight deadlines!

Hmmm... rather have the qualifacations than not. University was probably the best time of my life and wouldn't want to have missed that for anything. In fact if I hadn't have gone I would never have met my fiancee and wouldn't have a beautiful baby daughter! Pity it costs so much money to go!
