Unfortunately it's all about the money for a lot of us. I work to support my family first, anything extra that allows me to do what I want with my free time is a bonus. Oh and beer helps.

It just so happens that my mid-life coincides with my wife getting pregnant just after being made redundant. Two years on and I've got to face up to being stuck in the same factory doing the same shit year after year for the forseeable future.And by the time my daughter is out of college/uni/whatever I'll be just about retiring.
Anyone ever done it? I am getting sick of open plan office's and computers. I feel like I need to be in a workshop somewhere, doing restoration work or creating things. It's probably my midlife crisis knocking but I just wonder if the grass is really greener or just a different kind of stress?
go on a bricklaying course it,s a good laugh with the lad,s. you see your end product and its easy money, I was a sales rep made redundant, moved on it,s the best thing I ever done life is to short, I enjoy work it,s a laugh.
