Hi Guys,
I'm a self employed plumber 10 years now and worked for a company in Dublin for 15 years so all in all I have 25 years expierience in the heating and plumbing sector.
I am 37 years of age married with 4 children. Living on commuter belt. I have never had a day off work due to the downturn until this year.
I'm considering getting out of the building trade altogether but I didn't get a great education. I did Junior Cert and then started apprenticeship. Didn't get my trade papers in the end. Are there any tradesmen who have had similar problem and left the business? What business did they go into? I have considered coach driving or something along those lines, any ideas?
