After I studied animal care at college, I then went and got a job as a credit controllor! Hated it really, had to make 110 calls a day and you were pulled up on it if you didnt, and so strict!

Couldnt believe it when I then came where I am now (not for much longer though! :-( )

I worked in a laundry , blooming hard work , for not a lot
of money , but it launched me on to the next step of the
promotion ladder , which led to better things.
