Question Thinking of a career change - but what?

I'm thinking of making a career change and getting out of the licensed trade.

I'm not a thicky and currently work in management dealing with around £25-30k a week and probably over 1000 customers per week.

Any sensible suggestions on good opportunities out there? What is in demand at the moment?

I can spend up to seven months training for a career or qualification before I need to find something new.

Thanks

what do you like doing?

Train driver appeal? Know a few people who seem to be going down this track at the moment.

If you're flexible and willing to travel, then you could make a great mudflap

15 sailors captured for straying into Iranian waters, 14 men, 1 woman, it doesn't take a genius to work out who was reading the map does it!!!

Telescope salesman?

It's something you should look into.

Maybe you could become a lift operator, although that job has its up's and down's.
Or perhaps a fortune teller, but I don't see any future in it.
Maybe you could become a professional bra fitter, the pay might not be that good, but just think of the job satisfaction.
