Work, rest and play, what do you do? - SV650.org

Been a while since we've had a job thread but thought I'd expand it and take inspiration from a chocolate bar

I'm equating work rest and play to work, relaxing and hobbies respectively.

Work: IT Manager for an animal feed manufacturer
Rest: Play games, Watch movies
Play: Photography, Walking

Motorcycling should be in there somewhere but I'm just not feeling it at the moment, my bike is sorn'd and I'm driving everywhere.

Work: Doing MSc in Molecular Neuroscience research, plus part-time work as a mentor for disabled students, and as an extra in movies/adverts.
Rest: Internet.
Play: Driving motorbikes and cars, lots of sport.

Work - I used to be a Lab Tech, Adult Education Teacher and Support worker. However a spinal injury in 2010 has put a stop to most of it while we try to find a fix for the damage.

Rest - Medication which leaves me in a mong state, dribbling and fouling myself!

Play - Technic Lego, Scrabble, reading, watching movies and riding my fabulous bike if I am fit enough to ride (if not then it is cuddling my kitty Jasper

).

Work: Touring Live Sound Engineer/PA Tech/Technical Manager
Rest: Don't get much with a 6 month old boy, a dog, a wife and a house to keep tidy, but I guess some gaming.
Play: Mostly my work actually, I really enjoy my job but apart from that I'm really into my van at the minute, converting it into an awesome fun house on wheels. Rugby, love going to watch the northampton saints play and drinking with my best mate (although this is few and far between sadly)
