I know there is a work forum, but Id like to see what Cork folk who post here do for a living. Im not saying name the company or anything, just what job.

Me, I work in Shipping (documentation et al), and distribution (arranging deliveries of containers etc).

LilMrsDahamsta · 21-08-2005 1:15pm

I'm a full-time student (MA), but I also have a full-time job in research, and a part-time one doing psychometric testing. I do student counselling during the academic year too, but it's voluntary.

Thats really cool. I wanted to do some voluntary counselling but doubt I'm qualified enough, only with teens!

reic · 21-08-2005 4:09pm

I work in the health industry doing diagnostic testing of patients.

rymus · 21-08-2005 5:48pm

up to about 15 months ago I would have been the same as Adam in saying " as little as possible". Nowadays I'm a server fixit monkey plotting an escape from the world of I.T. to some day be a pro photographer. (hey... it might happen!?!)

World domination of course!

dudara · 23-08-2005 10:07am

I think that after all this the only place I'll be interested in dominating will be my bed! or maybe a nice seat in the Oval when it reopens

student studying BIS in UCC and stone mason during the summers.

The oval is closed? How come? I'm away at the moment.

dudara · 24-08-2005 1:51pm

apparently the guy who owns the Sin É and The Mutton Lane Inn bought it, and is doing a little bit of refurbishment. I'm sorely missing it at the moment, hopefully he won't change it too much

He made a great job of the Mutton Lane inn so hopefully he'll od the same for the Oval
