What does everyone do for a living on here?

I'm currently in my first year at Wigan *spit* college I'm studying Business and look set to pass this first year course and I can go onto the 2 year course in September!

Outside of college I'm a rugby league referee. Not sure if anyone on here is well up on RL but its a tough sport for playing and also refereeing and I think our referee's are alot better than football ones (Rooney wouldn't last five minutes on my pitch with the abuse he comes out with!) :D

Currently doing A level's at a College in Leicestershire. (Too Crap to name!)

huge fan of RL mate, a salford fan myself and i'm not to happy about our leauge posistion although our last two games show we ae up for the fight. Its a great sport but i have to say although i have to say its great on the salford terraces being able to walk about and have a pint, paying on the gate is good too.

I'm a IT project manager currently working for a firm I won't name in Houston, Texas in the good old US of A.

My spare time is pretty much consumed with music and football.

p.s. That leicestershire college wouldn't be stephenson's by any chance?

Aye a big RL fan aswell. Dont really support support a super league team, but had a season ticket for york knight for a few years. But if i had to chooso a team it would be wakey cos half my family is from there

btw as a day job i am on study leave for my A2 exams, then hopefully off to manchester uni in sep to do history

I "work" for a railway infrastructure contractor

doin GCSEs at the moment <_<

I'm on study leave for my A2 exams also at the moment. I work part time as a lifeguard aswell. I'm going to Uni in October to study Law aswell hopefully.

Nope, King Edward..Unfortunatly <_<

You from round this way as well then?

Doing GCSE's <_<

I have lived in ashby and coalville.

Currently finishing off my AS levels.

Fu*king students everywhere does anybody else actually work for a living :D

if by "work" you mean sit here looking at these forums all day

Least it shows that the younger generation care about the state of football

yeah, the worrying thing is, there's so many pubescents on here it looks like the over 21's couldn't care less :(

I "work" in IT, although the reality is I just sit there pretending I know what i'm on about, and surfing the net. God, I need to win the lottery.

Ronnie, how easy was it to find work in the US? Did you find someone to sponsor you and sort you out a visa, or did your company have offices in the US and just transfer you? I'm hoping to move over there in a couple of years, preferably San Francisco. This country is doing my head in. It looks like a mission to get a green card without having relatives over there.

San Fransisco, Is still in my opinon, the best city in the world!
What A place!

Im no student and I do work. Mind you it is enough to bore you all to death - saying your a Housing Officer never really does make people take an interest. :(

currently at a college in greater Manchester doing electrical engineering

Any industry your particular looking at with that?

If not I'd suggest the rail industry as a starter they are always looking for you boys.

It's wierd that. I can't understand how a lot of the older generation don't care and in a lot of cases LIKE modern football. Surely the younger generation who didn't know what it used to be like would be moulded into this new fan and just enjoy being "entertained". I guess it's more due to the fact the young uns want to experience what football supporting used to be like and the older uns have experienced it now they just want sit down and watch the game...

I think as well, when you get older, you get less rowdy, and are more happy to just sit and watch the game.

I'm a trainee accountant working in the City of London. At 25 it seems like I'm an OAP on here.

The firm I work for have offices here in the US (and europe), they offered the slot and no-one wanted it so I took it, I would never usually do something like pack up and move but I saw it as a chance of a life time and I'm glad I took it, it made me grow up lol. Better money helped as well, plus I literally spend all day just looking on ebay and this forum lol, I really have nothing to do its great.

I have spent time in chicago, pittsburgh and now houston. I had no problem obtaining a visa it was done through work but my girlfriend had major problems she ended up going to university over here.

I understand what you mean, the comparison between the US and england is vast, its like you can't breath in england its hard to explain even though I'm in a massive city I feel free. When I'm in the UK I'm aware of cameras watching you in the street, cameras watching ou when you drive, now the police maybe able to search you for no reason it just seems that england is turning into a communist country or something like...... I did say its hard to explain lol.

I was watching tv the other night it was one of those cop shows and this cop pulled over this car on the freeway and asked permission to search his car and the driver said yes and they found drugs in it, the policeman asked 'why did you let me search your car', he said he thought he had no choice the cop said 'yeah you did, you could have said no and you'd be on your way'. Not sure if that rule applies to every state in the US but shows you how much more freedom people have over here.

I'm not saying the freedom over here is totally a good thing, the fact you can buy a gun and bullets at the local mall at 18 years old still seems scarey to me even after all these years.

well i'm 32 and showing no signs of getting any quieter and my dad's 52 and at least as bad!

ye Network Rail were looking for some students to start apprenticeships with them but wasnt sure i wanted to do that so im staying on next year doing the same course with a bit of mechanical engineering aswell :D

Sounds like your living the life mate. As soon as my contract with the TA runs out i'm gunna go for it I think, i'll probably have to marry an American bird to get in though :D . Or i'll just move to Mexico and sneak accross the border like everyone else.

My day job is a night job B) seven nights in a row followed by a week off, for a "press cuttings agency," basically we summarise news reports about clients and send them off to them.

Tax dodging bastard :D

Business economics and accountancy in Swansea University, zzzzzzzzzzzz, very boring.

I'm in Uni in Swansea doing Criminology and Social Policy, just finished the first year, and cleaning (well sitting in my cupboard doing nothing) 6 hours a day for the summer.

I'm 19 years old and I used to be a football ref, till the abuse got so bad, and I packed it in. I always respect the ref now, as he has an unbelievabley difficult job.

On the weekends I like to countdown until the season kicks off.

It is interesting that most of the people on here are around 20. You'd have to say its a positive thing. Hopefully 60 years of campaining, if it takes that long.

Booooooo!

Who's the bastard in the black?.... :P

Porn Star

No?!? Really!? - me too!

Really thats my part time job too. Small world ain't it. ;)

Doing A-levels in Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Biology.
