So what do the folks here do?

[TemperateSeaIsland]

I'm curious about what the people in this part of CF do as jobs and/or studies.
This is sort of prompted by my earlier thread regarding the job market and jobs.

For my part- I'm currently working on an academic/Welsh government/private sector partnership looking at producing fine chemicals and biofuel from non-cultivated plants.

Good luck with that.

Modeling work then?

Modeling work then?

Well half of my time is data analysis (will be collecting my own data next month) and the other half is theoretical modelling. Maybe some numericals next year but will have to see.

I thought this was a pun? Based on Applied Maths using mathematical models to do with the Sun and the Sun newspaper having human models in it. If so then well done to you, if not then well done to my brain.

Teach. Mathematics, Religion and IT.

Beat me too it!
I was going to say:
"I didn't think they did male models."

Would be the first reason for me to actually LIKE The Sun.

To answer the OP:
I'm a total loser with no skill or training in any area what so ever.

Nah, I saw the pun myself after I typed it but it wasn't intentional.

Doesn't make you a loser mate......

You're only 20 so there is plenty of time. When I was 18 my "career" was digging ditches and holding stop and go signs at roadworks. If you like something like science, art etc... persue a career in it.

Ah philosophy, the stoner degree

That is a massively long winded pun!

What do you mean by fine chemicals?

 

[TemperateSeaIsland]

What do you mean by fine chemicals?

High value complex molecules. Generally things used in pharmacuticals (either as intermediates or final products) and biotech work.

Fair enough. Do you think biofuels are a good possibility for this country?

If thats a genuine comment, get yourself on the railways. Good pay, good chances for promotion, plenty of time off and working conditions/pension scheme most people would cut an arm off for.
