Apparently accountants are sexy ! And the sexiest of the building trades is an electrician. Can you believe it? I'm thinking of changing my vocation and the results of this pole may (or may not) influence my decision. Which job do you think makes for the most attractive suitor?

I've been trying to get into the funeral industry for over 2 yrs.. it's incredibly hard to get into. People tend to stay in that profession for years so vacancies are pretty rare. Ive applied for heaps of jobs in various capacities and got as far as an info night with White Ladies sigh

This will be good .. drinking

giggle well funnily enough, because Ive been a furniture/bedding salesperson for years, Ive been doing business certs, including myob, accounting and payroll to increase my skills and hopefully be taken more seriously when applying for positions outside of my industry.

So.. wanna swap?

My daughter's studying environmental science at uni. She loves it (except for the really boring stuff laugh)

She's doing it by distance learning while raising a child

I'm soooooooooo proud of her rollers

it's a cool job and very rewarding but i have just done it for too long and find the challenge isnt there anymore.
So you learning those skills is good and there are positons available with those skills. Sounds also like to are learning the right things and you will get a job with those skills.

I used to luv doing what i do but i find now, have more fun working with the people i do, not so much the job itself.
