Want to hear peoples opinions on the job
Was considering getting my ticket but wondering is there much work and what the average wage is.

I personally still love my job! Only been doing it 7 years! A lot of people in the industry are fed up of it as it's apparently not what it used to be!
I think the average wage depends on where in the country your working!
