I stack shelves at poundland in the day and work the streets of Nottingham at night, you may pity me but repetetive tasks and brutal anal are both my passions in life.

On a more serious note I hope I find the drive to change my career in the near future as IT despite 'paying the bills' and giving me a comfortable lifestyle is pretty much my passion 10 years ago, not now.

I don't have a job because employers are penises.

According to one stuck up Odeon manager, because I'm 18 and never had a job before, that means no matter how good a candidate I'd be, I'm not employable.

However I should be going to Uni next year! :D

I've not seen any jobs being advertised recently for Vodka drinking, Chilli eating Ninja's but if i do spot something i'll tell them send you a White Dove to let you know they have a vacancy!  :w00t:

Its because your educated, you know a good education scares a manager who has zero GCSE's! You might be after their job. :P

I find thats usually an excuse if they think you are too good for the job, they think you will get bored and move on and that its not worth investing time in someone like that!

I work for a large IT company in my current role i'm a "technical security consultant" or in geek language a Penetration Tester/ethical hacker/white hat.

Nowhere near as fun as the movies make it out to be, but it's an interesting job.

Have been a bit of a jack of all trades over the years, nice to actually get a specialism.

Jack of all trades in the applied sciences school at a university. This means I do lab, field and office work. Almost ended up getting interviewed by the one show today regarding some mysterious blue balls that fell during a hail storm, but they're nothing exciting...

I recently moved into a new role, now I support hosted/cloud based solutions/architecture.

Think I joined here back when I was in the last year or 2 of high school... scary shizzle.

Working at Knowhow as a very well paid driver/installer. Thankfully I have been getting more work coming through with Equanet (used to be PC World Business) including installing voice recording equipment, migrating offices over to new pc equipment and software, server installs, etc
