They are jobs still out there, just depends on what exactly you want to do and your willing to do.

Personally if it was me, i would go do a winter season aboard.

I wish in a way I did repping. I left school at 18 then went to Malia for the summer and went stright into a job. Looking back I wish I had more balls. If my life ever goes tits up I shall do this route for sure!

I'm in too much debt now to afford to go for a job like this now! plus I don't think the GF would be to happy! I would take the job in Andorra if i were you. Would be good, I've been there 3/4 times and loved it every time. What have you got to loose if you went and then didn't like it. Its only a few months of your life. Plus you earn a few quid.

Can I ask how much will you earn for a season?

Tom

Exactly the same as me.

I wanted to be a rep/work aboard when i was at school. Having a girlfriend and getting too used to having money once i left meant it never happened.

Now I'm in a job i hate more then anything in my life. Im forever spending money and listening to people moan about money all the time.

i would love the change in lifestyle but im too comfortable and scared of change now.

Don't get me wrong but I love my life now, although it is hard at present. I wish I did things slower in my life. I now have a well paid job, a large mortgage and a long term GF. I also had the chance to do repping I had a job lined up and every thing.

I still have a number of friends who are working as reps, two are now "managers" in two different places in France, they seem to earn ok for what they do.

If I had my time again I would do at least a few years of repping and then go into "proper" work once I was about 25!!!

Doesnt matter what economy you're in.
£5k a year salary isnt worth anything in any economic climate.

How can you decide to fly home when its a major chunk of your annual earnings. Serious.

EDIT: Sayer, should have said you were a single dad.
