    Dont think announcing a public career is giving much info away that cant already be had.

    A lot of guys are proud of their long and honest careers... let em have their moment.

    I have been training to be a Gynecologist as far back as I can remember.Been an interesting journey with still a few years of training left.
    Lots of variety and challengers as they are all basically the same but in some ways different.Some days I just slip into work all ready to go but I must admit sometimes I do have my "down" days but the main thing is to keep a 'finger" on the changes before you especially in the terminology like "Brazil'..."Landing strip" and "Bald Beaver" and so on but this is all in a days (or nights) work although last week I slipped up and ended up in the shit. Anyway overall I do enjoy my work and am certainly not looking forward to retirement.

    Cheers Vmax

    Working in security for many years,currently working in a hospital like Finny fighting with nutters druggos and all round cock heads. Hospitals produce some of the worst attitudes in people like the "You are only picking om me cause I'm black"
    No that is not true, I'm picking on you cause you are a dumb cunt who comes to my hospital drunk and obnoxious and are abusing the staff.
    I have even been legally allowed to cut and gut for a year which was great and hopfully will move back into when the next bloke leaves.

    Will probaly stay in my current employment until I can score a job driving trains as I used to drive shunters as a young fella after school,but after reading some of the posts on here I may well be staying in the security industry untill I retire.

     I have a new ficticious job I've been saving up to use but haven't had a chance yet. I asked my butcher why they had no lambs brains and he said that the abattoirs aren't employing skull splitters. SO...I'm waiting for some uppity person to ask me what I do so I can say "I'm a skull splitter at the abattoir".
