Im Ermm......nothing really.Left uni last sept (was doing mechanical engineering) was too far to travel everyday buy public transport-couldnt afford to take car in.I work in a B&Q Warehouse at the weekends and fuckn hate it now and help out with my olds businesses during the week. Im looking to get an apprenticeship with an electrical company but as im turning 21 on 16th may-its looking less-likely to happen. Any electricans out there that can help/give me advice please do so.

Leavon, I am also a 3D artist. Well I've only one title released so far (IndySeries, Codemasters). I worked on it while on a work placement year with Brain in a Jar. Who do you work for in Derby?

 

Have just finished a Bsc Virtual Reality Design. Have started a company doing mobile applications and some e-learning stuff. Have also applied for a job as a lecturer in 3D and Video at the uni that I just graduated. So wish me luck on that one! Planing to return to the games industry in a couple of years time though.

I am a retired meteorologist - after 37 years with a well-known national organisation.

I am still doing a bit of forensic meteorology for lawyers. (Reports/court attendances involving slipping accidents/rta, etc - anything where the weather/ground conditions may be in dispute. Even did reports for murder cases and one for a case involving an accountant who, in the poor light of a rainy morning, took an axe to a protected tree he disliked! That was south of the border, though - you've got to make allowances for peculiar national traits.

 

Worked at Bracknell (as did editor of VW Driver who recently admitted to working in same weather org.)

Fife (2 places), Kinloss (favourite!), Prestwick (2nd favourite) and both Glasgow and Edinburgh Airports and town offices.

Corrado purchase 2 years ago ate well into my retirement lump sum - you will all understand, though.

I'm another rail man (for my sins). Completely non-technical (although hoping to study for an FdEng), dealing with Records and Archives for all the bits of the Railway that are falling down, bridges tunnels etc. Anyone want a prestressed concrete beam drawing? :)

I might well be working for 'that company that used to be Railtrack,' although I couldn't possibly comment apart from to say, 'I'm sorry, we are trying, it's just the people at the top keep f**king it up :mad:
