    I have changed jobs since I last posted on this thread, jacked the job I hated in IT to go truck driving. Then just as I was going to start driving class 1 trucks I got offered another job in IT (4am start or 9am start so I stayed in IT. I enjoy this job)

    I still want to do truck driving at some point as a full time job and ditch IT (but then the grass is always greener on the other side)

    well nothing at the moment, was also in IT, worked at oxford uni as a systems/network admin, ran my own small business support company for a year or so, then ill health forced me to stop working and took me off the road for 3 years or so.

    BUT

    I saw the doctor on monday, and he agrees that I can finally return to work, and I have a few appointments to get myself started back into employment again, just need to find a low stress job that pays a reasnoble wage, and not peanuts!

    Yeah, watchign daytime tv all day, every day, surely there must be a limit to how much jerry springer and trisha the mind can take before it curls up and dies!

    A friend of mine drives a big 360, which does look alot of fun, he hired a small one to do his garden and I got to have a play on that, I have to say it looks like a wicked job to do!

    it is a cool job i guess, get to knock down buildings and dig big holes i guess, but this is true..... if you can drive a little digger you can drive the biggest ones, as the small ones are harder
