I do most of the time.
I'm a Stock Controller for a fairly small warehouse. The people in my office are quality, and my job always keeps me on my toes.

Im training to be an instrument technician. Workshop/classroom based just now but will be offshore on a rig or fpso in about a years time.
Im enjoying what im doing so far, great fun working outside building up mock rigs, tanks/containment vessels, seperators etc Playing about with PLC & SCADA control systems - programming, wiring & running them, calibrating & fitting operational measurement equipment to monitor flow, pressure etc. Roll on my time offshore - more of the same but loads of money & loads of holidays......7.5 months of the year off & around £50k.
This is soon to be my office, extracting crude to make petrol for all yer motors

Im actually excited about going 
Im doing pretty much the same! Apart from i will be a process engineer so working on site instead off on a rig. Quality job.

my uncle used to manage a restaurant owned by Fairline, it was in majorca, and the harbour was so posh it was untrue. his place was the cheapest place to eat in the harbour and it still cost a bomb, the only people who ate there were poor rich people and staff from the boats. some beautiful boats though

Car Salesman... Good days and bad days.. weather is a killer at the moment aswell as the hours.
Pay is as good as you make it, but this time of year is shocking for us..

bar/restraunt work - I enjoy it as its quite busy for christmas but not overly rammed.
Start voluntary work with cardiac rehabilitation team after christmas which should hopefully lead on to working there, then lead to co-ordinating similiar things and other schemes. Looks promising but we will have to see.

I deal with the lovely everyday public in retail. Cant beat it tbh. They either ask stupid questions, are arrogant or very pleasant.
Edit: Oh, and its never EVER their fault
