Well, if you were that astute a business man to earn that sort of money, you would or should know that sentences start with capital letters and when you ask a question, there should be a question mark at the end of it.

By the way, welcome to AFF.

WHERE DO YOU WORK? Fleet Leasing and Management Company

WHAT DO YOU DO? Fleet Analyst - I look at big company car fleets & leasing costs, make reports and recommendations of what they should do to save money...like go E-Gas Falcons.

WHERE BOUTS? St Kilda Rd Melbourne

HOW MUCH YOU MAKE? (LETS KEEP IT REAL GUYS!!!) More than when I was a mechanic...but still paying 30% tax...

ARE YOU HAPPY THERE? Overall yes. All the important things are right, just not what I want to do long term. I miss dealing with people and it is mostly very dull...rarely get feedback on the fruits of your labours.

There are days I miss the workshop, the bulltish talk and being a 'bloke', fiddling with cars, fixing things and feeling practical & useful....

Where do you work? For a commonwealth statuatory authority (im an MIB lol)
Where abouts? Downtown Adelaide <- try saying that with a straight face!
How much you make? Depends on remuneration review and salary. I like to think im fairly paid.
Are you happy there? I love my job. Hate the long hours, hate wearing a suit every single bloody day of the year including during the dry adelaide summer, but love the technical side of the job.

In 2 weeks
Where do I work? In a Prison LOL
Where Abouts? Luckily will be the Adelaide Remand Centre (Uptown Adelaide)
How much will I make? average base, but having a 24hour, 7day rotating roster makes for interesting overtime and penalties.
Am I happy? I am happy that I have been accepted into a position which is hard to get into, exspecially since I have had 7 fingers for the last 12 months and been stuck on workcover. I might enjoy overpowering handcuffed offenders if thy give me any lip LOL, JOKING
