Pretty much what I did lol I'm not a true programmer but I make a lot in PowerApps etc for a manufacturer and it's great fun! Good to try new stuff to keep things going in thee old noggin.I work in IT, Applications development and support for a food manufacturer. My background is infrastructure/servers/desktop deployments etc but I lost interest and enthusiasm for that side of IT and jumped at the chance to switch to applications (for the same company) a few years ago and enjoy it so much more.
One good thing about working in the food industry is that I've been able to keep working throughout the lockdown and have actually managed to save money due to not travelling the 50 miles per day for work.
Well, I say that, but then last month my old car died in a cloud of smoke and I had to buy the Leon, so I'm a good few thousand down really I guess

I've done more work over lockdown than when I was in the office which I didn't see coming. Also saved a bunch but mines mainly from going out at lunch and stuffing my face haha also got a new Leon haha I'm not sure if this counts as stalking haha
I had a total career change 7 years ago and started driving a truck.Been a Mechanic for 30 years and a tester for 20+.
Yesterday i finally passed my class 2 HGV test (what a drama thats been!) so hoping that sometime soon ill be having a total career change.
Looking forward to it tbh.

Was a joiner for 13 years before that but always wanted to be a truck driver.
Did it and thought I can always go back if it’s not for me but I still love it.
Bet that’s been a fiasco during COVID doing your class 2?
I too like my own bed too much.Yep, its been a bit of a mare lol.
Started revising about this time last year and passed the theory and hazzard perception tests last nov/dec.
Did a crash course towards the end of february and failed the test (nearly drove up a 7.5t weight limit road). Road signs my biggest issue.
Then lock down!
4 months later i had 2 hrs lessons and failed again. Caused an oncomming car to slow down as i was turning right at lights.
3rd test was 2 weeks ago and passed.
An old friend of mine is retiring, selling up and moving away.
He lined an interview up for me and i got the job
Not sure when im starting yet mind. All down to his house sale etc.
After 30 years as a mechanic, im sick of the sight of cars.
And they are getting harder to work on being as ive never been great with vehicle electrics.
Will stay with class 2 if i can afford too.
Like my own bed to much haha.
I guess we're the ones sat at a computer most of the working day and are able to waste time, ahem sorry, use the internet for research at work.....We need to run another poll/survey at some point. It has long seemed to be the case that a large number of members work in IT.
Sorry to hear that. Good to see you're already working to overcome it.I lost my job during the first wave of the corona virus. I was in a deep depression after that because I was dreaming so hard to get that and lost it in a moment. Fortunately, I was lucky to find a new job at https://uk.jooble.org/jobs-postman-royal-mail/Belfast. It is a part-time one. Al my free time now I am trying to do my best in starting a business.
