| 1256568 | 2012-01-31 08:11:00 | I've tried a standing workstation of sorts. I have flat feet and have to wear insoles in my shoes. I find standing in one stance for longer than about an hour quite painful for my legs. Walking around however is fine. If someone invented a walking workstation I'd be very interested!! | jwil1 (65) | ||

Moneys pretty much bottom line til you've done a few years though x_x what happens after a few years? I'd imagine someone who had done it for ten years would have the same skill set as someone who has done it for ten weeks, and be worth about the same. |

| 1256575 | 2012-02-02 02:09:00 | Standing outside a bank all day asking people to take off their hats has to be one of the worst types of security work.......... I feel for those guys, some of those in my local shopping centre are older than dirt, and I can't help but wonder what they think about all day. I also wonder who relieves them while they relieve themselves, and how they'd feel if all the action happened the minute they disappeared inside to go to the kaiser. I guess they be both relieved and pissed (no puns intended). Cheers Billy 8-{) |

When I get towards the end of my working life I'll be looking at something that puts food in my belly but takes minimal brain power and effort, So far I've whittled it down to working in a servo or driving a ride on lawn mower. |

Trouble is the lawn mower will probably be driving itself by then. Maybe a job testing TV screen clarity or some such....yep...that one looks good, nope, that one's colours are off...next... |
