when i tell people i drive a scoob they automatically think i have good well payed job, but in reality i dont. i can just afford to keep it on the road as a weekend car with the derv clio as a runabout, but seing you all on here can afford to use it, plus mod the balls outta them, what do you all do?

just being nosey.

start off im a wastewater process engineer. (and no i dont work with ****, i inspect manholes)

Apprentice (will be qualified June '08) Maintenance Technician - mechanical / electrical / process control / welding/fabrication / pneumatics - (food production factory). All good skills for DIY modding :)

So like where I work, they call you an "engineer" but don't give you engineers pay eh?


What would you consider to be "well payed" (Gross P/A)... as I suppose it's relative to what you earn? i.e someone on £14k gross thinks £25k gross is well payed, but someone on £25k gross thinks £35k is well payed... IYSWIM
