The reason I started this thread was simple... I was gobsmacked that someone with so few qualifications (NOT EXPERIENCE) could earn so much whether contracted out or working for the big boys, but I guess those guy's are not that different from me. I wandered into this gig 31 years ago as a baggage handler, with bugger all to show from my dad's coin wasted on 5 years of private boarding and through bloody minded determination and lots of cramming got to where I find myself today. Trouble is I realised ages ago that I'm actually pretty thick and not capable of changing direction and as I'm sure a lot of us do, accept the status quo and keep the head down
Most of us are not as clever as we think, we're just very street wise....Must get that HGV home study course out
