Thoughts 29/5/24

What jobs have you had?

You know what I’m not going to list every job I’ve done as I don’t want the reader to fall asleep.

What I will tell you is I’ve never had a day unemployed in my life, no I’m not lying however years ago you could walk from one job on a Friday and be in a new job come Monday. That can’t be done now due to all the security checks and everything that is now in place, but I’ve been in my current job in excess of Twenty years now so I guess I’ve dodged that bullet.

My work ethic has been that I would do anything to earn a bob or two for my family. I’d do any job I’m not a snob in that aspect and no job was beneath me. I think the attitude with some these days is that cleaning drains and service jobs are not for them and they want to slot into a £50k plus job with no previous experience.

Dream on matey and get real.

Have a good day everyone.

  1. The second funniest thing I get asked by medical people is “what did you do for a living?” The first is “what is your medical history?” Uh … got a few hours to spare?

    1. The two scariest things these days are that doctors lately dont ask for my medical history, even when I go to a new doc in a new city.

      2) The records are online, sharable within the medical community across at least state lines.

      1 They are under the illusion that I have been to the doctor for every ailment and that therefore my medical records contain a meaningful medical history.
