What jobs have you had?
My very first job was at 14 selling ice lollies and soft drinks in the pop shop in a local pub. My elder brother worked there and he got me the job.
I trained to be a nanny and whilst I was at college worked behind the bar at a local hotel for a couple of years leaving when I got a full
Time nannying position . I loved the job but the money and hours were
Appalling so decided to go a work for BNFL, a civil service type job . It was the sort of job where you were set for life, good pay good pension but boring as hell !!
My dad had a job as an estate agency manager but couldn’t get weekends cover so I helped him out … and fell in love with property – the start of a very long love affair ! After I few months I left the boring clerical job and got a full time position in a local estate agency, in warrington where I lived . When that closed down I took the opportunity to travel and become a holiday rep in Tenerife and then Gran Canaria which was character building to say the least . It was the first time I had been abroad apart from a school trip so taught me a lot about myself and how to stand up for myself ‘ After a year of that I returned to the uk and continued into estate agency, working my way up to branch manager with a handful of awards to my name . I still maintain estate agency is the best most interesting job. You meet such a wide range of people and a massive variation of properties . It keeps you on your toes.
After few years I married and had children and worked in my now ex husbands law firm doing probate and accounts whilst at the same time renovating houses and renting them out.
After my divorce I decided to take things easier and now resell
Online with my other half Lance . It fits in with our life and lets us chose our hours and holidays !!!
