I work in IT, mostly involving Database and EPOS management and maintenance for the Hospitality Industry.

I do admin and weekly accounting checks for our clients too, but the EPOS Programming is my main job.

It's alright. As mentioned in another thread, would rather be working in Journalism.

I am retired and tend to spend a lot of time at the golf club where I play about 5 times a week inbetween performing various tasks as I am now on the committee.

Used to work in IT as a Software consultant. The customer set, mainly the large airlines and credit card companies, was relatively small so I had worldwide resposibility.

Work doing automotive diagnostics, we get all the jobs other garages, main dealers and specialists can't diagnose.

Very interesting work as you never know what's coming through the door next.

Cheers

I'm a Sourcing Manager for IT and Production Print Equipment, working for the worlds largest print and document management company that no one's ever heard of. Which means that I get to spend millions of pounds worth of other peoples money.


I work for the UK Government and, having signed the official secrets act, if I tell you exactly what I do, then I will have to kill you..................................!!

I used to be able to say that for 12 years, and I live near Cheltenham, work it out for yourself.

Work it out for yourself? Not anymore! Now need about 5 of us to set up a working group, develop a business case, and have clear timeframes and milestones! And then we get onto implementation...........!!!

Hi all.

I work for the Environment Agency. I plan and develop stratagies on how we repond and plan for environmental pollutions. So that is anything from working with the Fire Brigades on decontaminations to small scale oil/ sewage splills to the environment.


So every day is different and is very varied. I have been here for 10 years and feels like just a quater of that.
So i am quite happy with it so far.

I'm an unemployed lay about who sponges off the system. I occassionally shoplift if I require something or break into a motor. I dont really worry about getting caught as I knwo the judicial system in this country is laughable and I'll never get a custodial sentence.

If I'm really desperate for cash I'll do the odd days work, cash in hand so the brew know nothing about it.

When I'm not golfing I'm sitting in my house watching my 52" plasma TV or surfing the net all day thinking how great Great Britain is, so thanks to all you tax payers, my life is brilliant. Anyone fancy a pint?
