I am only in my current job since March this year. Fortunatly I really like it.
Have been in 4 different jobs in the past 4 years, losing each one due to loss of business or budget cuts.
I made a complete change some ,years ago, my qualifications were in adult guidance and mediation. Just burnt out sorting out other peoples problems during a time that was very difficult for me in my personal life.
I know work in office management, I go in, do my job and go home and thankfully get well paid for it.

I'm right in the middle of finalising the business plan for a new start up too, great time to set up if you have a good idea...plenty of support available both Mentoring and financial

Brave move, and fair play to you, you can look at every penny you earn and know its been earned honestly, and that only makes it sweeter...

Interesting, you have come out of something I would be interested in getting into, well, one of a couple of possibilities...
4 jobs in as many years, that had to be stressfull by itself...
Great stuff that your happy in your work, whats it they say, "if you love your job, you,ll never do a days work in your life", amen to that...

Sorry to hear you were unsuccessful with the interview.
A year out of work, you must be going batty.
Well the course will keep you busy but you may have to accept that you might have to look outside the field of work you want. Maybe consider going back to what you were doing before? Not what you want but if oyu have previous experience in something it will help.

All the exp i have is in the science field and factory work .. ive applied to every shop be it food and clothes shop still no good i want to work crying out to work i dont want to have to so more study but its the only option there for me at the moment i am trying ... ive sent my Cv for general operatives, food production, production operatives as i ahve some exp there but i think im over qualified those jobs the amount of Cvs ive sent out this year is gastranomical... What do u work as missus ?
I finished a course and work experience last March doing a City & Guilds course on IT Principles & Administration to go with a Certificate in Industrial Computing that I already have and a Fetac Level 5 award for Communications, Manual and Computerised Accounts and Excel, Database and Word. I think I am going to become one of those people that keeps collecting certs but never finds any work thats relevant where I can actually use them 
Having said that being a full time single mom keeps me busy so I must be a glutton for punishment, thats by far the best job I've ever signed up for but the overtime is a killer

I would like to retrain for a new job as well. I did the foundation for a counselling course but I can't afford to continue it for the moment. I'm not sure if it's really for me at the moment anyway. Right now, I am not sure which way to go so I am stuck in limbo and can only concentrate on finding the money to send my son to Uni
i love my job designing roads....
i really love people giving out about roadworks and traffic james caused by them and knowing its my fault
