Grogg Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 (edited) Retired close to 4 years ago, before that I was ''in charge of supply and logistics'' for Asia, for everything that the property developer I used to work for would import from Asia, a position I got purely due to local knowledge and cronyism.

I searched the forum for one and found one that was made in 2011. I think a new one is in order! I've worked for Crossrail for the past 5+ years as a 'Survey Assistant'. I've probably met over 1000 people on the project. But not one of them was into RC. Not surprising but still a little sad. My job doesn't pay too well. However combined with my living situation (living with relatives and sharing bills), I get by rather nicely. If I wasn't a big saver, I could spend £500 per month on the hobby and sometimes I do, haha! Funnily enough, I don't actually have a lot to show for the money I've spent. Turns out that crashing is costly! What do you do for a living and how does it effect the hobby for you? As a nursing student, the journey is challenging yet rewarding. Balancing intense studies with clinical practice tests resilience and commitment. Reflective journaling, as suggested by https://www.nursingpaper.com/our-services/nursing-reflective-journal/ is invaluable for personal and professional growth, allowing us to process experiences and evolve into compassionate, competent nurses ready to make a difference in patients’ lives. driver and univ student Edited March 26, 2024 by yujik111 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted June 2, 2024 Share Posted June 2, 2024 I still own a security business (Fire & Security, not like bouncers on nightclub doors lol). Only difference is now I predominantly only work in high security places, such as Cat A Prisons, Banks and Mental Asylums..... moneys better but it sometimes gets a bit cagey..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RegisteredUser Posted November 17, 2024 Author Share Posted November 17, 2024 Bloody hell! I forgot that I made this.. Nearly seven years on, a lot has changed. I moved from Crossrail to the much beloved HS2 in 2021. I am now married and have a baby (neither of which have been good for the hobby, haha!). At HS2, as with Crossrail, I haven't met a single person that is interested in RC. Some people like drones and would like to try them out. There is even a man in my team who's job it is to conduct drone surveys. But I don't think anyone is looking for a new hobby. It's a shame, but my passion lives on! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meet people daily I've only ever met 1 customer who has had a Proper RC... and that was a LONG LONG time ago! in the 9years of been on the road, it certainly is a dying hobby 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
