Careers Advice?


Recommended Posts

Don't pay anyone for career advice, if they need your money they are probably in need of advice themselves.  :devil:  :devil:

I wouldn't take advice from anyone called Midlifecrisis either to be honest, who knows what sort of mental and emotional state they will be in and are probably in need of advice themselves  :devil:  :devil:  :xmas:

Get a 'trade'.  There will always be the need for plumbers, electricians, plasterers, painters etc. If you are good, you can then cherry pick the jobs you want to do.

......... Thus wrote the guy who doesn't have a 'trade' to fall back on but often wishes he did when his 'specialist' market goes quiet!

There you go Martin, advice from people who are at the sharp end is preferable to those who want you to pay for their services.

How about becoming a professional motorsport photographer ?

Funny you should mention that, I was stood behind two Sutton Photographers at Goodwood and wondered who much it pays/how you'd get started/etc

I would look to see what you can do to increase the scope of your current role.  Sounds like you work for a company with a bit of money, that's always a good start, see if you can make your job deeper or wider to include more thinking, more responsibiliy etc.  I've always tried to do that and it's occasionally meant more money but the main result is that I'm busier and enjoy my job even more.

For reasons I won't try and explain on here, I work for them and it beats the s**t out of me how they work somedays, that is easier said than done.
