I mostly work at night as a chef in a pub kitchen, so in the day... well I am bored!

I animate for a living so when I render a scene, there is time to browse the Internet while I wait.

On a busy or particularly difficult show, I would have a lot of 24+ hour work days during deadlines. so I would be off tmf and the Internet all together for a year at a time. I don't even drive my mini sometimes so I can catch some sleep on the train.

The show I'm on now requires quality rather than quantity in my work, so I'm able to slack off, and be back on tmf.

Simplessss :D


Ditto but what I would say is that the TMF is a fantastic place to hang on :-)

Usually spend a couple of days at the gliding club, two or three days working on Mini engines or my own Minis, and the rest of the time going out-and-about or relaxing. Best job I ever had.


Can we trade lives please?


You are in Cambs, so you would be most welcome at my gliding club which operates from the old RAF Upwood base near Ramsey in Cambs.


That's very kind of you uncle Cooperman, I might just have to take you up on that offer. :thumbsup:

Easy, I only work 12hrs a week, and spend the rest of the time bumming around at home or in the garage earning money for myself, mobile Internet on iphone4 means I can go online whenever and wherever.

Go to uni, realise how pointless it is, waste time on the internet despite impending failure.

I have been retired from the US space program for over three years. I can not figure how I had time to work! There is always something that needs fixing around the house and now the differential in the Mini too! >_<
