Whats the average job that people have?
continuing the theme of peoples personal details i thought i would ask what people did for a living as i am interested what people do with their
time.
i am a student at southampton university studying oceanography, so donn't have a living yet!
wonder what the strangest job will be?

Hi
I'm the planning manager for a large property development company. I time manage all the preconstruction activities such a site procurement
planning permissions, design and finally the construction of projects up to £450,000,000 over time periods of upto 30years.
plan for a living, but cannot plan my own life for toffee... 
I'm just seeing how far i can go on my HND certificate in building studies. Must be the biggest bulls****r around i guess.

Currently a manufacturing engineering student at Warwick University. In the summer I do project engineering and get paid pretty well for it
considering its a summer job (it just about pays for my car anyway!).

I'm a sales rep for an electrical product distribution company. Mostly industrial cables and such.
I seem to have a part time job wrecking company cars, tho thats more like a hobby at this stage.

I do care about what I do, love been outdoors on site, its more all the work place/office politics that i hate. Plus the firm that i want to work for
that is based 2 miles from my house wont offer me job, and instead I have to do a 50+mile each way commute every day to a humdrum office.
Good job i'm not bitter.

Coiled tubing operator offshore (north sea). Started off as a diesel mechanic but discovered you get way more for breaking stuff as opposed to sorting
it!
