Work for a landscaping company full time. Easy way to get fit shifting 10+ tons a day. Still manage to box and gym.

Only problem is you are left with a bad back every day.

You could do alot worse then Tesco's Stinky. Enough people have told me it's decent work for a few months, whilst you wait to join the forces.

Stacking shelves has got to beat executing and packing chickens :wink: .

I've just recently quit my job which was football coaching for some of the youths (sometimes the seniours) in the district area and instead i've decided to spend the next month dedicated to fitness, spending time with friends family and my bird before starting RT :D

I’m a bum, I do nothing all day apart from watch films and do A level English. I want to join the marines in a few months so I’m running 4 days a week, that’s my current job, but it lasts about an hour a pop.

I've been a property manager for the last four years. Decent enough job and I get a good mix of going out to meet clients, driving around and being office based.

Doesn't quite give me the excitment or job satisfaction I crave but I do enjoy it, it's stable and the money's good.
Aways look on the bright side of life.

Alot of people are far from satisfied with their jobs, but they still drag themselves to work each and every morning. They have much more respect for themselves, compared to those lazy benefit claimers.

I'm a plasterer. Been doing it for 6 years, since I left school. It's not a bad profession.
