How Did You Get Your Job?
44 yr years before I retired. If I remember correctly, it was "bad luck" that got it for me.
Re: How Did You Get Your Job?
well i filled out an application, went in for the interview driving the delivery truck i was currently running for the company i was working for at the time of the interview(common i know, and maybe a little ballsy) well at the time they would just about hire anyone with a pulse. that was 14 yrs ago. in my chosen profession, working as a metal caster, you don't chose that job, i believe it chooses you.

Well mine i applied for whilst still at school. Got a provisional offer on the grounds that i got good grades. Got the grades needed and i started working for the then Inland Revenue (now HM Revenue and Customs) in the recovery department.
Did a few years in the office liaising with courts and representing the IR then decided id like to have a try at being a bailiff and actualy collecting the money/taking goods. Did that for several years. I loved every minute. Have my fair share of stories and made my money.
Started talking about starting a family with my partner and decided to change career due to the nature of the job. Now working in local government managing various contracts but after 5 years im having itchy feet and im on the look out for the next challenge.
