Great photos Al. I don't think I'll be visiting you at work though. :o Has anyone ever fallen "overboard" or been swept away? :o

Not here but yes that has happened. There are many hazards in the industrial enviorment and offshore has that plus a few more.

I'm a registered nurse. My actual job is Chief Nursing Officer. List of jobs before college range from waitress to international telephone operator. I think the most interesting job that I've had was college professor. Unfortunately, professors don't make much money as a rule, at least not in the area where I was located. My favorite job was working with children.

:rolleyes: I joined Her Majesty's Civil service on a six-month contract .... that was in 1991 !

I've been with the department ever since, in fact on 24th june it will be my 17th 'anniversary'.

What is HM Civil service? Is it similar to a medical corps service contract?

I'm a Public Servant. Civil Servant to those in the U.K. Typing my life away. Not too bad really. Formally in the Telecommunications Industry for for 18 years until made redundant late last year. On the side I write poetry and am also a singer in a (just beginning) three piece band called "Dry Argument" I've only just "discovered" the absolute joys of Led Zeppelin in the last few years and loooooooooove the Blues. Got the blues right now... Kidding. :)

Sounds simple yes.., but you forgot 'REMOVE GUM FROM WRAPPER'. Thank god I don't have any cavities otherwise it would've been agonizing...

McDonalds tried skipping steps like that once. The results? Someone spilled hot coffee on themselves and McDonalds got themselves a lawsuit.

As for the smileys... I don't know what happened but I don't have anything to click... same goes for the formatting toolbar... it disappeard on me <insert mad face here>

P.S., not lol'ing @ "these types"... Grrr. Sorry, lol.
