(I am also one of the 100,000 employees, as we all have an equal share, but it sounds better the other way) My job title is Stock Management Partner but I also hold the titles of S.O.R. administrator (boring retail stuff) and PartnerVoice deputy representative (cool co-ownership stuff). That would be John Lewis, then? Link to post Share on other sites

A shard of glass Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Update on the Battery job I'm now a battery technician for ABSL Space Products I essentially inspect and test parts for batteries that get built into satellites Absolutely love the job, but I'd say it's not a very good use of my degree...

Guest Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 The government has decided that I'm too ill to work so it looks like I will be unemployed for a while longer. I wish I could just win the lottery and run a small business with no pressure. I hate the struggle that I have. Ideally, I'd like to do something with fashion, photography or computing but I'm open to other things. I just need something I can cope with but I really need an employer that will support me.

Guest Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Branch manager for a commercial vehicle equipment distributor. So, when you see a truck pull out a ramp, to make deliveries, that plumber pull a ladder off the roof mounted rack on their van--or that emergency vehicle with their strobe lights activated--or a news channel trying to streamline their reporting speed, by having better equipped vehicles--that's what we do. From backup cameras, backup alarms, lettering on vehicles, GPS systems etc etc etc. Its a bit different than what I used to do, but it is interesting to essentially create a mini office in a person's vehicle for all of those mobile entrepreneurs out there which is a growing market segment. Getting to see the major news channels in how they prepare a scoop (or most entrepreneurs in segments you did not even know about), is always interesting as well as got to do a few tours of news channels to understand a client's needs (a major part of my job). One of our clients got rear ended at high speeds in their van while at a red light. Over 1000lbs (inside the van) of payload flying towards his cab. The partition we installed him was heavily dented, but he was able to walk away, and laugh about it all. The van--not so much. It was almost a write off, as was the entire installation we put in for him. A lot of the things people don't think about, is what we specialize in. Link to post Share on other sites
OakTree Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I'm currently a 2nd full-time Criminology Psychology student. I'm really hoping to do something in the CJS (criminal justice system) when I've graduated, and to do a part-time masters degree in some form of criminal or forensic psychology, or even some kind of counselling MA; not sure yet. Still got a year and a half to think about that (minimum) Link to post Share on other sites
Larkaloke Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I'm a freelance illustrator with a side of web design for the steadier income (my actual job title is Technology Manager, but it's mostly web design). I also used to do a lot of theatre-related jobs on a stipend basis, but I had to stop that to focus on art. I do miss it though, especially directing and lighting design.

CFilipek Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Just now, iff said: If you don't mind me asking, What does that entail? I'm cataloging and inventorying my museums collection. Basically, I go through the collection item by item and check that the current entry in our collections management software is correct or enter the item into the software if it isn't already there. My position is grant funded, so I'm technically not allowed to do anything else due to the grant rules, but at other museums it would likely entail slightly more varied work Link to post Share on other sites
