I have done these jobs as ways to improve myself both mentally and financially. If daddiboo is unhappy with his job/life prospects then it is up to him to change it. There are more opportunities to retrain now than at any time. I could take on other opportunities that would increase my salary significantly over what I earn at present but as this would likely mean working away from home I will not do it. My family are more important to me than any job will ever be.

Please remember you work to live not the other way round.

If you had read in my other post i have said that Daddiboo does this work and as i said he does not complain and i have never said anything about him being unhappy in his work Daddiboo has done this work since he left school he went to college to better himself at the work he does. You can tell me about running up and down stairs Asphalt goes on roofs to can you guess how it gets up there when the hand pullys not working! lets not forget the reason we are posting in this thread and that is the about the government wanting to up the age limit for you to claim your pension. I really dont mean to sound like i am being funny with you i was just trying to put forward my point of view.
