If you weren't plumbing for a job what would you be doing for a job or like to do and why?

I would love to be a surgeon.

I find it fascinating that you can treat then human body like a cars engine or a boiler for that matter, you just open it up. Do a bit of work then put it back together and hey presto

It's not like a fantasy of mine so don't get worried that I'm going to do a Jack the Ripper on it.

Just if I had the brains for it, that's what I'd be doing!!

I'd probably buy a sheep and take it up a hill for some quality time and when i got fed up of the sight of it butcher it and eat it then buy another :lol:

 

[Killy Bing]

surprisingly i find tamz's less worrying of the two !!!

I wouldn't want to eat any of that after you've spent "quality time with it "

It would have your love stink all over it

Try a bit home surgery. Start with stitches then cut off anything that doesn't look right :lol:

I wouldn't think twice about stitching a wound. Seen it done with dental floss. You just need a small enough needle you can curve

How no? You could try out your home surgeon skills on it while the fire is getting up to temp :smile:

There's one or two things that don't look right but I'm leaving them on ha ha

Just bend any needle and use a bit cotton. Rambo was a ***** :smile:

Nice to hear someone saying if they had the brains for it on here as a lot seem to think they are worty surgeons money with a labourers brain !

 

[Kyle87]

There isn't a man or woman here with a brain. .....well maybe ray Stafford. Everyone else was stupid for choosing this career

You don't need brains to make money. Totally different skill set as you know.

Yep....you just need boobs

 

[basildog]

we have 3 docs in family ! All quacks !
They are just like any other ask 20 of them you will get 20 different answers ?
When I was a kid I came off my bike and split face open was put on kitchen table with about 10 docs they more or less voted as to whether to stitch or butterfly ?

 

[tamz]

Lucky you to get at least a discussion. Between the ages of about 11 -14 i must have had over 100 stiches in various wounds. At one time it just seemed one had healed up and i was getting another. I was either unlucky or a bit thick and kept doing stupid things but none the less there came a time where it seemed a unilateral (by my mother) decision after the "not again" and obligatory slap on the head, the passing remark to the doc of "just stitch him up" :lol:

ive just bought a 18ft commercial fishing boat with the licence, ill do it in the evenings / weekends and then see how it goes, if i wasnt a plumber , id definatley be a fisherman!

I like to pretend that I am in the merchant business because of this quote from Mark Twain:

"When everyone is looking for gold, it's a good time to be in the pick and shovel business"

It's not true of course, I drifted into it by accident, like most people do. Who has a clue in their teens or early 20's what life may be able to offer?

Having said that, I wouldn't rush to change it. I would end up doing something in business. I did a lot of computer programming when I was younger, but not sure that I would want to do that for a living. The creativity has mostly gone from that field anyway.

I'd do exactly the same CXR100. My Father was a fisherman but he wouldn't let me do it when I left school. Once its in the blood its there forever. It's only all the bureaucratic nonsense involved with fishing that stops me buying a licensed trawler.
