Hi all

I was wondering what other forum members do to earn a living or if retired what did they used to do

I will kick it off

After working in parts and service at truck dealerships for about 5 years and then Toyota dealerships all over Australia for 20 years we settled in Tassie and for the last 7 years i have worked as the depot clerk (bottom of the food chain) for the local rural council

It is a good job with a 9 day fortnight where i often go for a sail on my rdo and i like not having to deal with directly the public any more

There are about 45 country type blokes working out of the depot and i find as long as i keep the milk, sugar, coffee, tea and toilet paper stocked up they are pretty happy

The job is varied and busy and i do a bit of admin stuff, hand out ppe, order stuff including vehicles and plant, unload freight and load gravel onto trucks with the telehandler so i am never board

15 minutes from home and the drive to work is along the river so i get to look at boats twice a day and to be honest it is probably the best job i have ever had but i will never be rich doing it but that doesn't bother me too much

Regards Don
