Yeah but ‘applying’ is basically bunging a cv at an advert. Selection is only undertaken by already trained troops. So a slight difference I’d say. We digress. It can’t be easy driving trains. Those track rails are very thin. Skilz man…
So what does everyone do for a living?

Mere pedantry.
You can join the SAS from any branch of the military, so dont need to be a soldier kr efen a "trained troop". A cook from the navy may well never have even done weapons training as would not ordinarily be expected to to partake in boarding operations. Airmen and sailors can apply, even those who join any of the branches as a musician.
When you've been in the SAS (sorry, I don't want to blow your cover) and also been a train driver you might have some appreciation of this.

They wouldn’t let me the SAS. Said I was too hard…
But cooks and bottle washers don’t join.
Yeah, I won't be applying to be a train driver as I've got ADHD. Info retention ability under stress is far too inconsistent. Incident response is okay but I'm not willing to gamble peoples lives with my varying attention levels. I recall a tram driver recently crashing seconds before looking up from her phone...
I Clean out the $#!t in Cuckoo clocks.
That's niche!
I thought they called it spit?!
Has anyone started their own mobile pizza van business?
I haven’t. But I imagine you could make some good dough doing that
Last guy I heard that did it was found dead in his van. Apparently topped himself....I haven’t. But I imagine you could make some good dough doing that
A chap round the corner did this. Cooked Pizzas in an old horse box parked up in a theatre car park. Maybe toward the end of lockdown. He then moved into a shop unit on the local high street, built a great big wood fired pizza oven, bought a decent coffee machine and got a license so he can sell nice beers. He then bought/started renting the unit next door… seems to be going from strength to strength.I haven’t. But I imagine you could make some good dough doing that
See Pizza vans by the roadside in France very often, sometimes only open set days.
Festivals can be a big earner.
Getting a spot on a walking route to a football stadium would be decent as well
Bala and Summer camps had huge queues for the pizza wagons, Bala sold out with a queue still queueing! Getting the right pitch is key!
Might just be me, but I derive a good deal of satisfaction from beautiful plumbing, thank you.....

Nice! Someone put a good amount of thought into that mate. Made it easy to maintain. Which is one of the most important things!!
Yeah, it was a new install for my oil boiler and radiators. Opted for surface mounted copper piping to the rads as thought it looked like it suited the old victorian cottage. Plumber did a great job linking it in to the old existing pipework.
