I was lucky in my previous employment to work in a lot of different places, mainly famous venues such as the Royal Festival and Albert Halls, the beautiful Gaiety Theatre and Guiness brewery in Dublin to name but a few.

I was just very very lucky. It was due to
the people that I met and worked with who taught me everything, that I got on.
Well beyond my own expectations. There is hope for those outside of the education syatem.
You need confidence and an optimistic view of life. Good luck helps.
It is who you know and not what you know that matters.
Value other people and yourself.
It is then you may play the system . MMM... Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool with the director's secretary.... working.
MMM... Motel outside of Maidstone with my Admin assistant... working.

When I first moved to Devon my job allowed me to work from a clifftop in Croyde and the beach in Budleigh Salterton. Team meetings took place in a bar in Barnstable.
Prior to that I was lucky enough to have a job that involved meetings in the Waterloo Block at the Tower of London, the bowels of the HMS Belfast, the top of the Tate Modern, a floating office on Tower Bridge Pier and best of all, the top of Tower Bridge.
My current job is a bit pants
