I have the space to do that (kind if) just not the time 
If my job involved working in cars and I earn't something like 30k a year I'd be like a pig in shit.

I just envy them tbh.
My mates work at a glass factory in St. Helens called Pilkingtons
Ones a fitter on £42k a year, takes a sleeping bag in on night turn, and and his xbox on afternoons.
One is on the coating line watching a tele with a constant float of glass on it, if it stops they have to get the process started again, its only stopped once in the 8 years hes been there. Hes on £36k a year.
The last one does the same but in a diffrernt plant. Hes on £35k a year and has a den in the middle of an iron girder with a tv and a mattress in.
They are fucking hillarious

I knew a guy who worked at JCB and all he did was watch a screen all day next to a big machine. Any problem and a buzzer sounded and he had to hit an emergency stop button.
Buzzer went off maybe once every 3-4 days.
He was on 35k plus bonuses! Bonuses FFS

I bet he had to have a ridiculous amount of qualifications and experience to get that job as well. That's usually the way.
