Irish defence forces The scouts

What a pathetic excuse for an army. They even limit the bullets they can use during training exercises.

Remember the life less ordinary advert on tv of them blowing up a giant poster of a tank

I hear they are getting cheap tin $hite Hyundai diesel vehicles this year to replace aging fleet of Toyota and Nissan 4x4s. Even Isis and Hamas can afford brand new Toyota Hilux'.

Pure keyboard warrior is what you are! As a serving defence forces member I can tell you the job is far from boring (as you have made out).. It's clear from your silly idiotic comment that you haven't served a day in the irish military as you would know that the 'Nissan's' have been out of service for over 12 years now and as for Toyotas I haven't got a clue what your talking about they have never been contracted too provide vehicles for the defence forces in recent times anyway. Play the keyboard warrior all you want pal but at least get your facts right. The defence forces has it's ups and downs like every job. I work irregular hours and different shift patterns like alot of my colleagues (something which you probably could not relate too)! So no it's not a boring job if anything it's quite different from most jobs. If your going to make statements at least be able to back them up truthfully ðŸ‘

Tunnelling engineer.

Software Engineer for a company that gave up innovating a long time ago. Same thing day in day out until I die or quit. At least as a road sweeper you'll get a bit of excitement when you find something cool!

I always thought librarians were paid very well.

I did however base that on the one and only librarian I know of - she was paid a ridiculous amount, but she works in a university, so normal rules don't apply I suppose!

It's my idea of heaven

Libradians are well paid. Not much to it and it can be baffling some places want masters degrees.

knowing you branie, i reckon you spent half your time looking for **** material

I have a life outside that as well, you know. And I was busy working, stacking shelves, checking out books and correcting questions in a children's table quiz.

In university at least, the ones putting books on shelves are Library Attendants.

Librarians would be expected to be well-versed in their field (science, business, etc) and be able to support students in discovering the most up-to-date and relevant research, as well as liaising with academic staff to ensure the most relevant materials are on the library shelves and available online.

It might be boring, but it's more than putting books on shelves.

I can't remember the exact details - this was years ago. But I distinctly remember being surprised by how much it was. I was younger then - it's possible I was more easily impressed than I am now:D

Working in a curtain shop would be my idea of hell.

Customer: hello do you sell curtains
Me: Yes we've many different colours designs and sizes. Have a look around and let me know if you need any help.
Customer: do you have any blue curtains with a floral design?
Me: No.
Customer: ok thanks, what about green stripes designs?
Me: No but if you have a look around you'll see all the colours and designs we do have.
Customer: ok but I really only wanted those designs I mentioned. Thanks anyway.
Me: bye.
