Ah, there's two of us!

But I have more dash!

;o)

Should liven up trolling nicely on my part too!

I teach physics and biology in a Llanelli secondary school. It has its ups and its downs. Falling rolls at the moment are pressurising staffing numbers but being reasonably specific and skilled in my other role in school (Upper School Pastoral Support Manager) all should be OK unless the powers that be change the pastoral support structure. And I really hope that they do because the job sure ain't what it used to be!

Teaching issue is that everyone is an expert due to the forced prolonged contact with several in formative years. Oh and the 13 weeks paid holiday really riles people up. 😀 (Off to teach now)

Broadcast Engineer for a combined Radio/TV station in Germany; although I'm moving back to England in the spring. Which will make the drive to MM, D2D etc. a LOT shorter 😉

I've always considered the holidays to be unpaid. I'm paid to teach 22.5 hours a week for 195 days of the year, plus associated preparation, marking, etc. If the holidays were reduced, I'd either expect my salary to increase or I would want my hours per week reduced, so that I was paid the same hourly rate I am currently paid.

Graphic Designer, books are fairly full here for a few months, and no worse than for this time of year anyway so fingers crossed.

I used to be a "Craftsman Electrical Fitting and Generation", but now I'm an "Operate Technician Technical" whatever that is 😯

Finishing up in my 3rd year on a Media Production course, had opportunities to work with some great people- hopfully going to film / a job that travels.

I used to work for a large company which I believe is now part of BT, running a team of web designers.

Now I just do websites in my spare time for funding my films.
