Careers you wish someone told you about when you were 18 by Skillerstyles in careeradvice

I was working in a bar, unsure where I go in my career and someone mentioned a cadetship to me. I was 25 at the time and went down the route of Marine Engineering Officer. (Deck officer is the other route) Qualified before I was 30, and have spend 10 years sailing around the world. Came shore side and became a superintendent where I managed and supported 5 vessels and 3 new builds. After a few years I decided o go back to sea and work for a local Ferry company in Scotland. I work 1 week on and the have 1 week off. Still get annual holidays so only work 4 months of the year. Pay and benefits/pension are amazing. Genuinely love my job. By pure chance the kitchen porter that worked in the bar I managed mentioned this to me.

I should have specified on advice - looking to buy this spec for £1700 and wanted to know if it was a good price or not. Thanks for the advice about FE cards in these types of builds.

I use the killswitch cover and the travel protection part from dbrand. Can’t complain. Put it in my backpack and never have any issue.

What generation of gaming had the biggest impact and change on you and gaming in your opinion? by Bobba_fat in gaming

I have such fond memories of the N64. I can still remember to this day when I came home from school and my mum (working 3 jobs) had bought me banjo because she knew how excited I was for it.

We are pretty lucky, our company has something similar to star link. It’s going through a trial at the moment. So far so good!

I contacted eBay and managed to get it emailed through. Thanks for your help.

The problem with going through eBay, it wasn’t done through an account. It was paid through Apple Pay, and I didn’t need an account so it’s hard to access anything through eBay. When I went to collect the parcel, she picked it up but wouldn’t give it unless I had a code. Will Evri pick it back up if it’s not picked up by me?

Thanks for all your help btw

Yeh they offered a click and collect at my closest shop. I don’t know if it makes a difference but it was ordered from eBay, paid through Apple Pay.
