I love the way Jac put it, I'm also medically retired! Thanks Jac, sounds so much better than saying not working due to disability. I've been a credit controller, barmaid, student nurse, bowling alley attendant, customer service adviser and shop assistant!

Re: What do we all do....................?


I was a credit controller in the accounts dept of a large printing and packaging company, left to bring up my children. When they reached their senior school, I took a part time job with Boots for a few years.....

I now live a life of leisure (I wish!)

Re: What do we all do....................?


I have 2 jobs (for financial reasons ) I work in a High School, mainly do first-aid, but have been on some bereavement counselling courses, so do a lot of bereavement counselling & mentoring with the pupils, when I'm not doing that I keep the school database updated! (I have worked at the same school for 11 years) My other job is 1 night a week (Fridays) I work as a Marie Curie HCA in people's homes, looking after cancer patients while their carers get a good nights sleep. (have been doing this for 4 years)
