    Yay loads of replies.

    A couple of people have asked could i study part time but i want to work with animals (i think!) so if i did give up my job i would have to go back full time as its only full time courses they do, undecided though yet, i am a very emotional person and the job might be too upsetting for me. I am going to defo start volunteering for an animal charity this year, just waiting to hear back from cats protection league at the moment :)

    I never put down my job anyway, i am a fleet adminstrator, work in a office dealing with people who have company cars who are mainly muppets but pay is fairly good considering i have only my gcses and i like my work colleagues (another factor in the do i quit.....)

    I'm a development officer for an adult education charity / ngo thingy.

    Its a bit like being a consultant but without the money - it does pay reasonably well tho.

    I'm a teacher and head of year at a secondary school, it's hard work but I do enjoy it (most of the time).

    Pretty much lived in overdraft since being a student, it just seems to become the norm.

    This is my dream job......
    At the moment I am mum to two young boys, work 20hrs in my local pharmacy and am studying with the Open University....I have been accepted on PGCE for Sept so I am on my way to acheiving my goal.

    I'm a Part-Time CPN (Community Psychiatric Nurse) - work 20 hours per week (school hours.) I used to love my job.....but now not sure:confused: Am going back tomorrow after 15 months off with DD:eek: Loads of staff changes & politics going on:mad: so will have to see how it goes....if goes badly..I may end up stacking shelves at Tesco (not joking - I'd love a job that you can leave at work when you come home!!!)

    My DREAM JOB! That and social work!
    Debt free and plan on staying that way!!!!
  • I am a trainee lettings co-ordinator. The pay is !!!!, but I am hoping that when I am no longer a trainee, but pay will go up. But it's the job I want to be in for a very long time. I really enjoy my job. This is something I have never been able to say in my line of poo jobs. I was on a 3 month probationary period, which ended in December, so I am going to ask my boss if they are going to keep me permanent or if I need to update the old CV and find a new job. :money:
