I'm a house mover part-time. I like the job. It's quite manual like I've had some like 12-hour days
00:06
But other than that, I do like the job. It's a fulfilling. I applied for a job with NATO
00:14
Unfortunately, there was a spelling mistake and I finished up at NETO
00:18
Which was a bit of an anti-climax
00:21
Working at ASDA, I'll straight-up say it was not a nice place to work. The people I worked with were lovely
00:27
Management itself just didn't know what they were doing, didn't know what was going on. I work as a consultant radiologist
00:33
So I've seen medically trained and trained to do radiology, clinical radiology, which is imaging
00:38
So I don't do radios, which is what people think often when I say that
00:43
But yeah, it's imaging to help diagnosis of disease and to help treat people. So it's fascinated me from, you know, young age
00:51
health and so and anatomy, the body
00:55
So combining that plus technology
00:57
It's a perfect fit for me
00:59
I have my own business with like camera systems and automatic gates and garage doors and stuff like that
01:04
I have a set of technicians
01:06
They on-call, so anytime the jobs are there, I just make the call and it's done
01:11
What makes a good job is having a good manager
01:14
I think you can have the best team in the world and do the best thing in the world
01:17
But if you don't have a good manager, you're just not gonna do anything. You're not gonna do alt
01:21
I know it's cliche, but they say
01:23
Was it if you if you love your job
01:27
Never really work a day in your life or something. So it's actually true. I was selling insurance. I knocked on this chap's door
01:34
He didn't have a pension. He lived in sunny Seacroft and he invited me in
01:39
There's only a young fella in his 20s and he I explained the benefits to him and he said well
01:45
I'm to the money if I die. I said well, it'll go to your wife
01:48
He says what if I'm not married? He said I said I'll go to your kids
01:51
So what if I've no kids I said it'll go to your estate so what everyone in Seacroft
