I work as a deckie on a motor yacht! Just a shame about the 2nd officer on board
I did some training, worked on a boat before this which ended up having a few major problems and then got a job on this via someone on this site that helped me out training wise and with a lot of stuff. Which, is a bit mad when you think about it, but then again it just shows you got some top top people on this site.

Mechanic and Mot tester, been doing it all my life as my old man used to run his own garage doing damaged repairables so was always out helping him from an early age.
Did drift away from it slightly welding together steel offices and portacabins in that shit hole they call Leeds, first night i was there got my car nicked ( Mk2 Cavalier SRi, loved that old thing!! ) then the second day at work some fucker stole my wallet
Worked for a couple of Ford dealerships for around 10 years and now back to a small independant garage and prefer having a variety of vehicles to work on, anything from an outboard motor to a tractor to a 45 ft long truck !!!!

DP Technician in a huge law firm....
Got into working for solicitors straight from school... went into the sixth form on a course for thickies, seeing as I thought I'd failed all my GCSE's.... turned out I'd passed em all with C grades which is equivalent to an O Level pass!
So I slummed it for a bit, pretending to be thick like, then went on work experience (at a solicitors). They were understaffed at the time and asked if I wanted a job after the three weeks work experience... of course I jumped at the chance of earning £40 a week in 1989!

I was in IT for over 20years, everything from computer engineer thru to IT business consultant.
Then lost interest in computers ... they will never catch on, as I was told by the 'old' engineering company bosses!!!
I am now a Railway Signaller and love it, less stress when I go home and considerably less working hours. God help those who travel on my lines
