I seen a post by Sleeper on the reaction you get when you tell someone what your job is.
Well as some of you know I am an electrician and as soon as I say what I am the faulty lamps, kettles electric blankets and even ''body massagers'' would fly out from cupboards like something out of Mary Poppins. It was a pain in the arse.

Years ago I used to work on torpedoes and that was bliss.
Nobody had an old Mk24 locked away in the cupboard that required a new homing system, all you got was ''that sounds inetresting and if asked to talk about it you just said ''official secrets''
On the torpedo job, if any of the young guys were heard using the torpedo story to chat someone up they were slagged off and their names put on the notice board as a fully qualified torpedo doctor.

Any stories about your job.
