I work as admin within Mercedes commercial, its good clean work, plenty of laughs a day, not too much stress, but as ever feel I could do with more money!
But sure it doesnt always bring happiness does it.
I came from a much better paying but ultimately soul destroying job.
Sometimes you have to weigh up whats important in life.

I'm 28 and I run my own business, I'm a software test analyst. Get to choose where I work and for how many months of the year, wage ranges on location, I've worked all over the UK and Europe. Currently in Harrogate working for a small software development house called Erudine.

I've worked for EDS, BT, NHS, GCPD (MI5), Council, Barclays and many many more.

I used to work for EDS as a permi, got £18,000 a year for 3 years with no payrise, bonus or training. Went contracting (operating under my company name "Si Logistics") and wages have ranged from £200 a day when I started out, to £50 an hour and now that I'm SC Cleared wages have came to £1,300 a day for short contracts in London.

Nerds are the future! :)

couldnt agree more man. Like someone said above about people not driving something bigger or better... Im sure a lot of us could afford to be driving something bigger or modding our cars to 500bhp if we really wanted but it always surprises me how some people want a near standard car and others want a great looking car and others want a mental colour car... its all down to the individual... once the starlet gets in your blood its difficult to get it out!
