I'm an accountant, there's nothing like a good long complicated creditors reconciliation to get the blood flowing. I'm getting a semi just thinking about it! I think I'll head back to the office now just for fun.:D:D:D

Down with this sort of thing

Some people might say thats great, not me I'd say its very 'hit or miss' like in one film its your standard run of the mill porno and then another might be some 60 yr old fat granny doing the nasty.

Yeah I work with a dude who used to be based in customs in Dublin port, he said they have to watch any porn DVDs that are found to ensure they're nothing illegal, sounds like a sweet number, unless you found the Catholic Churches' bumper bonanza :eek:

hahahaha - this thread is so funny its amazing how fast it went into the gutter

The Express · 13-07-2010 11:27PM

Heard of a guy that lives in North Wicklow, supposedly very well paid doing chassis/road testing for some car manufacturers (often Jag). Drives the bejasus out of them on the track, clocks off, back to a nice hotel every night, then home to IRL until he's called again. Sweeeeeet.

The way my own job is going at the moment, sitting on my arse for 40 years and hanging my hat on a nice public sector pension would do me just fine. It really would.

I live in hope and anxiously await the lifting of the recruitment ban

My great uncle(is there such a thing? My mam's uncle) used to do this for Audi I think it was. He said it was the best job he's ever had, was some craic just racing around. There used to be other drivers too and they'd be having mini races etc.

Anyway the OP states what cool jobs do YOU have, not what cool jobs can you think of.

I work for the Government, to gauge the attitudes of modern Irish people on public forums such as this. Sounds pretty cool but the findings are depressing. You really wouldn't wanna see my pie chart.
