Sweep, are you an apprentice?

I know! He works in something to do with property I think...

But seriously, he should leave his job and get a job with you lot as a "full time post whore"

Just started a job today working as a Lab Assistant in a Test Lab department of a company that produces electronic/electrical connectors.

Spent much of the day wiring up a Military spec connector plug & socket ready for testing with humidity tests, etc.

D6dph,small world hey!where abouts do you work,i am in Shenfield near Brentwood.

We are really busy too,most companies we deal with have sold out of high end product early this year,mainly as they brought less bikes into the uk this year and more demand.

Fulltime sales/admin clerk, have been for 12yrs, I'm also trained in CAD and woodworking, I also weld, grind and cut, then weld again but that's in my own time. I help a mate at his garage as much as poss to gain more tech and experiance. I'm also a father of one and then there is the Mrs too, so money for fun parts has been hard to come by lately.

I doubt I could ever switch over as I worry I'll get bored playing with cars 24/7.
