    Does anyone here have a real job - or is it a motley crew of freelancers, self-unemployed and similar ne'ever do wells?

    I have a proper job. Or at least I think it's proper. That's why I don't have a dog.

    I don't have a proper job. In fact, I'm hoping to never have a proper job again - I don't think acting can ever be called a proper job, even when you're not "resting".

    On paper mines a proper job, but Andy wouldn't agree at all.

    I often wonder what it'd be like to have a proper job again, especially when rent time of the month comes around. But then I realise I prefer the freedom of freelancing.

    On paper, David.

    Things that constitute a proper job
    1. having to go somewhere every day
    2. that place not being your house
    3. having stuff to do when you get there
    4. having a contract longer than a couple of months
    5. not being able to run another business when you are at 1

    Unless you fulfil all of these, you're on shaky ground.

    I think I meet all of Andy's real job criteria. Plus have a massive financial target, pissed off staff who report to me and narky bosses. Lovely.

    Is there a real job poll coming on? We haven't had one for ages...
