I work for a wholesale business supplying mainly florists but the range of goods we stock means we have also suplied Unions, poultry farmers, supermarkets, a well known website and we've even had to deliver to Harrods!
We have a fleet of Mercedes... well a Sprinter and an Atego but you still get the keyring.
Its true that selling flowers isnt the most manly job in the world but since 90% of the customers are female you learn to cope.
Im not sure what my specific job is but im sure i do something all day.

Myself, I'm an Anatomical Pathology Technician. Assisting with post mortems and taking care of your nearest and dearest when they pass away.
Not everybodies cup of tea I'm sure, but it is very interesting and can be very rewarding.
Spent the last 4 months working on the Isle of Man and an now working in sunny Watford for a month.
Any other A.P.T.s out there???

Was the phrase "Not EVERYBODIES cup of tea"a freudian slip or a pun? It would seem that you sort out what i could'nt. (see job description)Do you also get asked the questions-" Oh, i couldnt do your job" or "i bet you see some things"?

[da SLUG man]

My daily drive

and before you all start, i only drive frieght trains.

we got a train spotter at work!... spotting the 62's at the mo i think... nearly went mad when the old ufton train crash happened, no trains for 10 days!...

i'm a lorry driver in my spare time...

i also have some property lettings in the north east and edinburgh but i don't have much to do with that, the estate office just puts money in the bank and any expenses get paid out... they deal with all maintenance and everything.
was in it with my cousin but he just took his share and ran off to spain to live a life of cleaning pools and free living!... i've never made a penny out of it apart from £7k this year which i bought my quad bike with...

[Diveboy]

Had a varied career when I was younger; the army, ran a beach bar in The Gambia, sound engineer in a (very) small studio, put TV's + videos together for a large japanese company, and many many more. Been a teacher now for 7 years, currently working in an independent prep school as a science teacher and head of Physics. And yes, I do know it was your worst subject at school. I'm told it by just about every b u g g e r I meet.

Keef.
Sorry about the pun, can't help it sometimes .
In answer to the questions, we do get the usual ones:
How do you do it? -
You must see some things? -
You must get paid a fortune? -

Cheers

I am a partner in a software company and we primarily develop software for Police Forces - crime reporting, briefing, tasking, intelligence, stuff like that.

It's quite interesting most of the time, especially being responsible for your own company - don't have a proper boss to tell me what to do!

Any Police IT managers out there who want some quality software solutions?....

I work for Kent police ...some good software this way please!!!
work in one of the busiest areas in the country ...so a good day wollowing in the mud off road is grrrrreat!!

Nope, decided to go on a reef conservation project. Half the dives are scientific survey stuff, the rest are 'fun' dives. Got to organise my flights yet. Had a mate who went to Cozumel last year, he still raves about it.

I'm an Analytical Laboratory Supervisor for:
http://www.cytec.com/business/Engine...als/index.shtm

We make resins, adhesives, prepregs, etc. Mainly for the aerospace industry but second biggest market is the performance automotive stuff - virtually everything you can see and a lot you can't see on an F1 car is made out of prepreg.

Worryingly though, I know a shed load more people that are scared of flying than I did before I worked there......

I also take great pleasure in telling boy racers from time to time that their precious, incredibly expensive carbon spoilers look like material that we'd only sell off as scrap!

Surfness has rubbed off at work, there's now 2 in the carpark!
