i work for a large elevator company, been there 3 yrs and have never touched an elevator.
Funnily enough, i work for the doors department.  which most people don't even realise we do doors.
I install/service/repair Automatic sliding doors and roller shutters.

That's a bit different.. :goodjob:

I suppose it's about time for me to add my blurb.....

30 years ago after being laid off I bought a vending machine business & been filling & fixing them ever since.
Was planning to get to this point & selling up and pottering around but my kids have decided they wish to carry it on. Too bad about buying me out, they don't have any spare cash so any thought of retirement is back on hold.

Bugger!  :disapp:

Sounds like favourite icebreaker when public speaking about careers for kids. I tell them my wife did banking for years until she lost interest, then found an opening in doors and windows. :whistler:

Im working for Hilton Hotel, as a technician, but trying to get to get into the sales department. The dream is to work my way up so i can get out of Denmark, by being transferred to another Hilton somewhere else in the world. Want to feel and see the sun everyday, Denmark is not the place for that! Great looking girls, shitty looking weather, why cant i have both, the girls and the sun! :D
Maybe thats called "Being to greedy"!

At least you are working and not on Tony Abbott's surfing team. (The Dole.)

Maccas is a good employer, good resume for the future. :mrgreen:

Well done  :happydance:

I had one, but it fell off my badge. Earned my 'S' star but no one has given it to me yet. Slackers. No one, and I repeat, NO ONE has all five stars like the chicks on TV.

And we won't be dancing around the store flogging those stupid Amore meals either. Don't tell anyone I said so, but they are not worth the money. Buy your meal separate, and add the sides. You will be lucky to save 50c with those meals.

I can't remember if I've said what I do in a previous post, but I manage approx 80 Mac systems, and other IT related gear for a K-12 institution; prior to that I was an inventory controller for seven years.
