They always say it's not what you know but who you know and maybe we might be able to help each other out with what we do a work. Who knows but just a topic for conversation.
I'll go first then.
I am a Sales Manager for a label printing company based in Corby.

Ignore any photos of people on there if you look, I've not been added yet.
Cheers

An interesting bunch
I am one of the "lucky gits" it seems
I took the King's shilling (voluntary redundancy) at the end of March and retired from Local Government. It wasn't the usual boring job - it involved a big team looking after the ICT needs of over 500 schools in the Local Authority.
Life was never dull but I must say that I don't miss the job (ever dealt with head teachers? Funny lot!) but I do miss the office crack - it gets a bit quiet during the week and not too many other trail riders around able to do weekday runs. End up spending too much time at the PC
The upside is that I am able to do quite a lot for the local TRF group (particularly on RoW stuff) which otherwise is left to that "someone else" bloke.
The downside is that I don't have any real practical skills or contacts to help other members out with BUT I am happy to have a go at any RoW queries for folk who aren't TRF members and therefore don't have a line into local support and advice.

No but head teachers dealt with me on a regular basis in my youth
I ain't done it for 20 years though  . I was an H.G.V. driver till I was 29 then jacked it in and went to uni to study Psychology and Criminology  . Never thought that would lead me to a job where I get called all the names under the sun for a living
