I have been working in offices for the last 10 years, some of it good when the people are a laugh but some times depressing when your surounded by utter PC Corporate drone wankers....as it was in my last employment - When there I spent as much time doing my work as I did staring out the window wishing I was doing something more outdoorsy....
I'd stare outside regardless of the weather and ponder doing something more satisfying than just staring at these fucking screens in my office breathing the stuffy shitty air con air....
I have just completed two Courses CS30 and CS31, there will be more in the future but these courses have taken me outside, in the end I was cutting down 70ft Scotch Pine trees in a private woodland to learn the cuts. My assessment is due soon, as well as this i have been given a job contracted to at least 3 days a week, although I will get more i am sure as time goes on.
After a few months, I will get into the trees and do the courses which allow me to cut within the canopy and I intend to do an arial rescue course. all in the future of course.
Now the comeddy of it all, its hard fucking work, I am so unfit that its embarrising they at 42 i need to get runing again or this will kill me within a year or two.
I will be handing my notice in, in due course at my current employer taking a massive pay cut, but its the only way to take on a new career. I like it at present but its hard so so hard...
Cheers.
