Chap I used to work with jacked it all in the become a train driver - good money and low stress.

This will be my pre-retirement job in a few years time when I've had enough.

Don't be too hard on yourself.

I think you'll find it's a pretty hard job to get into, a bit like NASA/Fighter Pilots/London Black Cab drivers i.e. only the best.

I wouldn't think it'd be low stress knowing thousands of lives per day depend on you not screwing up or falling asleep, both I've been guilty of on more than one occasion.

And it becomes pretty high stress if you're the driver and someone throws him / herself under your train.

After I left school in the 90's i spent a bit of time at Shepperton studios working with my mates dad who was a movie armorer. Made spears and daggers for The Mummy, and guns for Judge Dredd.

Edit: Since they've both had remakes - shows how old i am.

I was an Electrical Engineer for a few years, that was good. During my training I spent several months in the Electrical design office, which was good fun, I was asked to do a review of the small generator designs to see if I could figure ways to make them cheaper. Gr8 fun and I didn't figure out anything useful.

I used to do component level repair in workshop in my twenties.

We had some really fun times mucking about. Setting traps for each other, lots of workshop memes.

Would probably be boring now.

I used to mostly enjoy being a waiter in a Happy Eater people are so weird!
