Default Your Nine to Five?

Come on then, what jobs do we all do to pay for our bait?

My main work is with Elton and various websites…

What do you do?

I run a warehouse on the mighty Trafford Park. It's only a small operation with me and a couple of guys downstairs and the 'mighty one' upstairs. It's a nice relaxed atmos and a laugh. The boss is also sympathetic to my needs as an obsessed carp angler, lets me go early etc.

My day starts with me waiting for Julian to pop up on MSN. I then send him various amounts of abuse, which he either ignores or returns, and that sets the tone for the rest of the day

We've covered some ground over the past few years, but our main income has been giftware retailing. However, disillusioned with the lack of UK product, service by suppliers and the whole business in general, we've made a big leap this year into the internet. It was always there, but an 'after work' job. Our dream is to make it into our full-time jobs this year.

Failing that, I suppose we'll get a bit more time at home with the family, at least
