I'm an assistant manager in a real ale pub owned by a micro-brewery. I'm also on the verge of finishing my NVQ Level 2 in Team Leading which is actually below my managerial level but I did it seen as it was free (another notch on the old CV)!

I like my job most of the time but have been in the industry for over 6 years and am used to quick promotion. I have kinda peaked now for the forseeable future with this company (no full manager jobs coming up) and will admit to being a bit bored with the routine.

DH is a brewery operative at the brewery that owns my pub and he loves it.

I feel the same, I only work in a pizza takeaway. I know I'm only 18 but I really feel like I should be doing more but I don't know what I wanna do!

I'm 21 next June and STILL have no idea! And I don't get free education anymore, even if I do miraculously decide on a career path! It's annoying because it's 18 months until we TTC so I don't have time to go to uni or anything, and although I'd love a good job that I love, TTC comes first for me. Also, if I went to uni we couldn't afford to move out, and I just feel like we can't live with our parents anymore. I dunno, I was never offered careers advice at school (though OH was, oddly enough!), and I don't know where to go to gt it now

I am a mental health/health services researcher. Right now I'm finishing my PhD in nursing. I work with families living with dementia. It can be long hours and pressured sometimes but I love it.
