I'm a part-time basketball coach, hopefully going full-time come september.

Pros-

£20/Hour
I actually enjoy doing it.
You get to meet some fucking fit teachers.
You get to perve on all the milfs.
It's exercise.
You're not working 8/9 hours a day, 5 days a week like most jobs.

Cons-

Petrol.
You have to wait a month for the cheques to come through.
Then wait for them to clear.
You have to sort out all your own tax.
You need CRB checks doing regularly, luckily cannabis cautions don't show up.
Sometimes the facilities are pure shit.
Occasionally you have a group of kids who are little bastards, who swear at you, don't do as their told etc.
Sessions get canceled without notice and although techincally you're supposed to be paid for the canceled sessions, it takes along time to get the money.

I'm considering applying at frankies and bennies, need some cash and need something to fall back on if my coach screws me over.

^ I like the sound of that!

I work as site administrator (on a building site) basically helping the project manager keep up with his paper trail. I finish my day at 4.30 and of course work with builders most of whom are a good laugh.
