The opening line of any "full time" muso playing in our band upon arriving at a gig is "Hiya.........What time are we being fed?" They will never buy food on Saturday morning/lunchtime to eat that day if they are playing at a function that is feeding them for free later that night.

You're not wrong there A40Bosh. My dear old Dad was a Muso (semi pro) but when he came home he used to tell me if it was a good gig by whether he got fed or not.

Until very recently, Junior Partner in a firm of accountants & auditors.

My wife (English dad but Hungarian born and raised) is desperate to return home to Budapest though and I've finally conceded defeat, so we are planning to open a salon for her and I have accepted a role in operations for an airline.

If any of you have ever waited for a bus in London and looked at the timetable to see when the next bus is due, I am one of the people who actually compiles those timetables to a Transport For London specification (they dictate when the first and last buses are, as well as the peak and off peak frequencies. etc.). As you can imagine, each route specification is different and each route is run by a private London Bus Company, operating to a TFL tender, so everything has to be very cost effective. In other words, it's Logistics, aiming for the most efficient use of resources. And I've been doing this for 44 years!

Once the children grew up and I got divorced i studied hard to get a Legal Executive qualification and became a residential conveyancer for 10 years. I was made redundant about 3 years ago as my boss wanted to retire, it was just at the time of the downturn in the market so nothing came up in that area in the small town where I am so I took some shifts in Iceland and I'm still there and have forgotten everything I ever learnt. Quite a career change but the plus side is that I get 10 percent off all the food (I know you are all jealous) and there is no pressure other than smiling at customers for four hours which I challenge anyone to try

I run my own business as a technical sales agent for air conditioning diffusers grilles and louvres. It has its enjoyable moments, although sounds boring compared to some mentioned on here, but I think I'm too old to get into dwarf chucking now.

Quantity Surveyor/Commercial Manager in Civil Engineering. As of last Monday I'm 26 years in the business, and have been bird senseless for the last five years or so, so I'm finally going self-employed, on claims consultancy.

I also do some development and investment as a side career.

In my head I'm a writer and English Literature teacher, which is what I really should have done had circumstances been different.

Worked as a Youth and Community Worker in Lol Gov for 24 years based at a Community Centre, great job Then got the chance for an early retirement deal Bought a flat which I rent out Started up a one man gardening business which I do in Spring and Summer. In the winter work as a relief support worker in a sheltered housing complex with older people Back in the day I was a lighthouse keeper at the Mull of Kintyre for 3 years, seemed like a good idea at the time

I've always fancied being a lighthouse keeper Did you enjoy it Moray?

Glad to see some disilliusioned posts on here. I'd retire tomorrow if I could, but I'm 41, so I can't.

Currently I do one job as a researcher/program developer for an employment program in Harlem and another job as a health policy fellow for the NY state senate (which actually involves a lot of working from home in one's y-fronts.)

As soon as/ if I ever get my part time PhD finished, I'm going to start looking at the job market in London again - see how that goes. Or that's the official, rational plan anyway. What I'm more likely to do is say "fcuk this career shyte", sign up for a credit card and go off taking photos of various places for six months. Then come back and face reality.

Jeez Moray, my dad was a lighthouse keeper. That was how I ended up in the Isle of Man, we were never down Mull of Kintyre but overall my dad had quite a few.
My brother currently works on the lighthouse supply boat, of course no keepers left now.
