While searching for a job in my field of computers, I currently work at Maintenance at the college. I do office work, but sometimes a lot of grunt work too. The past week was filled full of mulching and weeding. We re-did the flower beds. That was back-aching pain.

Apart from the day job as an ME I'm also employed by a couple of UK universities to examine post graduate and doctoral candidates.

We also live on a 4 acre small holding so there's always plenty of gardening to be done here as well Ben wink.gif. Oddly enough it's my wife who likes gardening just plants things but she never sems to do any of the digging/weeding/strimming etc. I end up doing all of that even though I'm not fond of gardening at all rolleyes.gif .

I've done a lot of working in stockrooms, with clothes, bread, towels, mail...
A long time ago also some in a kindergarden and phoner for an insurance company.

Now I help mentally and/or physically handicapped people to get around to activities.
It could be, cinemas, amusementparks, museums, parties or just a bike ride.
I get most transport and all entrances paid and most of the time we eat at restaurants.

I've ben eating out more than ever this last year and seen a lot of cultural offers. biggrin.gif
It's not really good money but still 55-80% of what I get when finished studying,
and it's mostly weekends.

Yes and hard work today,
visiting this ship http://www.casr.ca/id-danish-naval-projects-absalon.htm
Then watching some male national beach volley team lose to Brazil (there were some women players too wink.gif )
At the end we had softdrinks at a bar near the water.
Work sure is hard...

Sometimes I do gardening to... my parents force me to do the weeding, hate it!
Mowing the garden and letting the grass grow is more ideal. Maybe a water feature in the middle with some frogs to keep it clean. biggrin.gif

I never ever liked gardening, because my mom is obsessed with flowers and always takes care to let me know about it biggrin.gif so I kinda ran away from that activity since I was a kid biggrin.gif
