Administrative / Labour Intensive

[lukas989]

Which are you most in your career - administration based, or a engineer/labourer/person who uses their hands/fixes stuff?

 

Me - Im an admin guy. Once we have 11 of each, lets organise a game of footy - Admin v Labour.

 

Admin will win obviously, because we're faster thinkers. Celtic to labourers other teams in the league so to speak.

Time served technician who worked the tools for 8 years before moving into the office into the engineering side. Don't know what I'd class myself as now.

Working for a service company offshore would certainly never be classed as labour intensive.

 

Behave your self min.

[Foster14]

I'm a proper Engineer, so I don't use my hands or fix stuff. Mainly seem to do admin-type work.

Apologies,

 

However, if that's part of a platform / process unit, then that's even more lax than service comp.

A bit of both tbh hate admid side so im in team engineer/labourer/person who uses their hands/fixes stuff?

[Poodler]

Car salesman.

Hopefully a decent one, this place needs one.

 

Labour intensive. Heavily. Canna be done with paperwork and sitting at a desk. I don't know how anyone can spend 40 hours a week staring at a computer. Is it not soul destroying?

[dervish]

Chartered engineer, few degrees and post grad. Did em to do engineering but ended up doing cunting spreadsheets. Tedious, shit crack.*

 

EDIT: Aye so do admin basically.

[King Street Loon]

Used to be a plumber, then offshore for a while. So very much labour.

Now a pen pusher.

Aye, I'm a lazy bastard now.

same but could still pump the admins 5-0

[Chewie37]

I've done both, but right now I run a restaurant and do the cooking. Admin will get pumped I reckon. Poor eyesight from staring at PCs, fat from sitting around too much and scared to get dirty.

[ChutneyLove]

Milky. Used to be labour intensive back in the day seemingly, but then the union insisted we get assistants - so I do bugger all now.

[Nelly]

'Spreadsheet' engineer. Is that classed as admin?

If it is then count me in. I'm massive in the spreasheet game.

Poor eyesight sorted via lazer eye surgery, and happily running 8 miles every other day no bother. I'm forever climbing up stuff and getting covered in crap - no worries there. But I accept I could well be in the minority; but as long as there are 4-5 other likewisers, I'm pretty confident we adminners could easily hump the fast food swallowing tea breaking moany faced engineers n labourers... Not to mention outwitting them with our formulaic tactics - zonal marking, mathematically calculated runs and so on.

[boboisared]

Admin.

 

Having seen the state of the folk claiming to be labour, I think we'd take an easy victory. Fans giving it the 'Ole' treatment 20 minutes in.

Aye, labour type workers only understand 4-4-2.

With the correct formula, a spreadsheet can be used as a calculator.

Speaking of cups, yesterday was a learning day, I found out what the official volume of a cup is, in cooking terms. 250ml

I've just checked that in Excel for you, turns out the square root of a jam jar is #NAME?

 

You're welcome.

 

Idiot.
