I work as a graphic/web designer mainly design and build websites but also do some print design. I also look after our servers for hosting and build php/mysql driven sites.

I quite like my job the people I work with are a good laugh and my boss had a new duke 999 which is pretty cool.

Blimey, and I get to do a fine mix of all your jobs working as the office manager for a relatively small sheet metal factory which doubles up as a mechanical / electrical engineering/projects managing / turnkey solutions for architects place with our own powdercoating plant. I get to do company websites and CAD design drawings, sometimes set programs for the CNC turret punch. I do lots of accounting too when the company is "between accountants". Basically, I step in where needed due to holidays and stuff. In small companies, you need to be flexible. And I do all stock control, purchasing and marketing, applying for tenders.

Oh, and part time pizza delivery still.

I'm the queen of all trades and te jack of none. So many strings to my bow, it's a harp.

£18k a year doesn't go far with 3 bikes a car and renting a flat with sea views in southbourne with a garage. Lol. Like i said small company, they can't afford more than that after the greedy welders/fabricators have had their chunk.
