    Recession proof maybe, the country will always need it's money counted!

    Nothing I'd like to repeat again in this life time but I survived. I did the last two pregnant which is not something I or my poor husband would advise, God love him ;)

    There's a few lecturers who do revision courses etc that are invaluable, so a bit of research on the best courses to attend and you're half way there.

    Thanks for the help!

    I'm a gardener. It's great, I work for myself and get to use power tools like chainsaws and hedge trimmers all day. If the zombie apocalypse happens between 8am and 5 pm Monday to Saturday, I'll be tooled up and ready to fight.

    I'm a paediatrician - a children's doctor.

    It really just means a terrified rush to keep on top of current children's cartoons whilst simultaneously thanking and cursing the Gods for Frozen, because without it you'd stop humming "let it go" constantly but also have to learn a new movie.

    And also not getting attached to nice clothes - bodily fluids are in fierce supply where i work

    I wish you would get into specifics, I'd love to know what exactly "working in IT" involves because nearly every second person say it's what they do.

    Back in the mid 90's we used to just say 'I work in computers' and people got it - no questions.
    My mum still says that I work 'in computers'.

    Then why are you asking for advice, on another thread, about your dog's fleas?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,778 ✭✭✭goz83

    Fortunately i'm a hypnotist too, so when my clients call me, they forget why they called me. :p

    He's part time. The rest of the time he knows nothing about fleas.

    Same place. I work downstairs in the donation rooms of the IVF clinic!

    College boy there works upstairs in the actual "hospital" where you have to have a "degree" and "wash" your "hands".

    Feckin' posho!

    In college studying animal care. Volunteer as a Veterinary Assistant in a Veterinary hospital when I'm not studying. Supported by the government which I'm extremely grateful for because of the heavy workload associated with college. Will progress onto another course after this and hoping to be paid during training!
