What does everyone do for a living?
« on: Nov 13, 2007, 09:12PM »
Well?
What do all you folks do?

I work at the RAA in the roadside assistance call centre... Boring as hell, but not too bad.
I'm midway through a 12 month traineeship. Thats why its so hard to save money, stupid trainee wage.
Ah well, soon it'll go up and then i'll wrake it in! haha.

My last year 12 exam is tomorrow, then Thursday im applying for a job as a storeperson... Apparently im 90-95% chance because the boss has been asking about me for about 6 months now, ive just been doing year 12  ;D

Hopefully that turns out, good pay, good hours etc.

Security installer, I service alarms, cctv and access control systems in Home and business.
I used to install, which meant climbing into extremities of roofs, trying to make something out of a shit house quote from a cowboy in the sales department that doesn't know what they're selling, teaching people that alarms have evolved to be quite fool proof *sigh* nowadays etc.

Now i Just service, which basically means driving around and changing batteries all day. Most faults that come up are end user problems, today for example we had a government agency that somehow deleted thier own user code and wondered why they couldn't arm the alarm up *smacks forhead*. Every now and then we get someone that has lost picture on thier cctv cameras, so you look under the desk and they've unplugged the power supply or something. No common sense with most people.
Don't get me wrong though I love this job which is why I've been doing it for over 2 years, pretty much since I finished school.

So yeh I'm on the road all day, I've been with my current company for 2 months now and on the road for 2 weeks, so far i'm crunching 200k's a day in a crappy mitsu express thats damn thirsty (300k's to a tank on a good day). Makes me wonder why I feel like driving on the weekend really.
