I enjoy my job and currently it pays very little, but I tend to agree. I miss the days when I had money to throw around, but overall things are better. So yeah, despite voting stay, I am in the "move if you think you'll enjoy it more" camp. Go for it dude.

work is something we do to gain money to live.. nothing more nothing less. enjoyment in work helps just as much as job satisfaction. we would all love the ideal job but in reality it's very rare that we get the chance.

No, we manufacture refrigerators, yes real manufacturers in the UK, who would have thought it. I love everything about it, getting new sales, new designs, solving problems. I know I should get out more, but if I do I only look over the bar to see what refrigeration they use.

Neither job is worth it!
You wouldn't be doing nearly enough miles to warm the bike engine properly unless you take the long way round.
Most of the extra grand would be used filling the bike for the extra miles.

Just off Shripney? LEC built a new warehouse for their new style fridges. They got me to test some of the new machines and wanted me to be one of the first operators. I had enough by then and jacked it in.
