Hi , i started out as a shop assistant at 14yrs got the sack from that job after 1 yr, as i was off sick when i went back my job had been filled by someone else , i was devastated. then i went to work in a hospital where i stayed until i got married. then worked in a food shop for a while , left to have family didnt go back to work until about 1978 worked in aviation. then worked in computers . then retired . hazelx

Unfortunately June, I was on the dole for a considerable amount of time, it seems that there was no call any more for people in my profession.

Very varied jobs well done June ..
