Pharmaceutical. It's clean, temperature controlled and most importantly have great canteen facilities.
 
Apart from being 5 years old what is actually wrong with this thread?
Do you think the OP has got their answer now so any more opinions are now irrelevant?
Is nobody else allowed to see what kind of work other people prefer unless they start a new thread and get fresh opinions from scratch?

Nothing but because it's 6 months old it's broken apparently. But when it was 5 months and 3 weeks old it was relevant.

Go figure....

It seems to me that's par for the course with marine work - on my last marine job there was a 20 year old yacht fitter/Electrical Trainee with no experience on the same money as sparks, the boss (total idiot, didn't have a scooby) had his next door neighbour (previously a windscreen fitter) working as a mate on £2/hr less than sparks.
Marine work seems to be all about doing what the boss says because he says so and he's the boss, and nothing to do with common sense, regs or knowing how to do your job.

The Navy will have nothing but trouble with those carriers,and I can see then going back into dry dock for a long time to fix everything after the first few sea trials.
 
Though i was brought up in the industrial sector, i voted ''commercial'' only because that's basically the area i've been working in for god knows how long now. But i'd be just as happy being in a cleanish industrial environment. Though i don't mind getting dirty, even today, i don't think i'd want to be working in say the steel industry, that Tony has spent most of his working life in...

Though it would be interesting to spend a couple of weeks to a couple of months to experience this sector of our industry....
 
I’ve only worked in what may be regarded as a clean environment twice. Hated every minute of it.

How strange, according to the section page I made this post 7 minutes ago.
