I did a lot of testing of GIS and telephony systems for emergency services and water management (big in NL) and was then persuaded thanks to a high rate to go testing in a bank. I've been regretting it since, but they're paying quite well up to now and the big projects in emergency services are all on hold right now.
Mind you, shouldn't complain too much; I can do the work here in about 1 hour a day. Just don't tell anyone.
A job where I can do the work in an hour is my idea of hell - I much prefer to be kept busy!
Feeling really bored right now though - on my last half hour before the Christmas break. Well, will be in a store on Monday stacking shelves, but, last day in the office this year
I kind of miss the corporata madness of banking though.
While the work is repetitively mind numbing, the hours and nice and cushy. Also really easy to drag the work and get in as much overtime as you can stand.
Much prefer retail myself to be honest – first experience of retail a year ago, was dreading it, have not had a more varied job in my life.
Unless you count air despatching with the RAF…….
He says he hates banking to try to stop you joining.
