Hey Scott! My apologies mate, I didn't see the message come up originally, only just noticed when you sent this one
Yes, it was I! Well, I'd recommend it if you're looking for a long term job, with reasonable pay, reasonable pension, a lot of varied work, intense excitement, satisfaction, and enjoyment, mixed with spates of tedium and frustration at times.
I've been doing it 21 years, and I've absolutely no regrets about my career choice. I would still tend to view it as a job for life. Sure, people will join and then leave after so many years, but the vast majority join up and do the full stint. Drop us a pm or e-mail with any queries, thoughts etc.
Cheers
Simon
