I consider myself a jack of all trades, really...

* I owned my own computer repair and graphic design business, but things slowed down a bit and I'm doing it on the side, although I'm planning on switching it back to full-time since I just ragequit the most uninspiring sales job I've ever had yesterday, but if there's a good IT firm I'll join ya.
* I sell health and nutritional products as well, which keeps the lights on for me since the job I ragequit was also cheating my pay... Not to mention I've lost 16 lbs and counting in the past few weeks with their products.

Haha, no I own a clothes shop and a footwear agency selling to retailers and multiples around the UK.
I just enjoy the latest tech and selling, hence why I said that sounded really interesting.

There's quite a bit of technology in ship navigation, but due to the testing and approval it goes through the user interface of some systems looks very dated by the time they can by actually installed. Makes a car sat nav look incredibly basic! Can cost 40k for a ship to sail on electronic navigation and throw away paper charts.

Wish I had time to sail!
