What did you do before tiling?

[GazLC81]

Well, i,m not a tiler yet but.....

Warehouseman,
bar man in Gran Canaria for a year (and what a year that was):wink_smile:

audio visual technician,

Escort,

pimp.....ok not the last 2...:happy:

I went to school with a lad who told everyone, including the teachers, that he was going to be a pimp when he left school. No kidding!

Not surprisingly, last I heard he was in prison!!:confused_smile:

Probably still a pimp, looks after all the queens inside.

well guys , don't take this the wrong way but i find it a little bit alarming that most of the replies don't say .....School, then got an apprenticeship as a tiler!!!

Been in the trade since i left shcool (at 14!!)

Left the trade in my mid 20's to join art school where i studied new media / graphic design.

came back to the trade , but i found my learning of visual layout & design very applicable within the tiling trade!!

Used to be an engineering foreman, used to get earache from the man at the top and grief from the lads on the floor . Do I miss it? do I not. (that's the cleaned up expression!)
