Employment record
I am currently on a forklift training course at Training Express
at Marshgate in Stratton. I have my basic Reach and
Counterbalance licences. This course also entails me studying
and taking Level 2 Warehouse And Storage, as well as Level 2
First Aid and Level 2 Fire Safety and Level 2 Health And Safety.
I am also currently doing various voluntary work, mainly IT
based. This involved going to people's homes and sorting out
Windows, DOS and hardware problems, installing printers,
scanners etc, and general teaching and advice. Recently I was
volunteering at the Swindon Museum Of Computing on Friday
mornings, but had to stop this to do the forklift training.
1989-1991
Access Computer Centre, Swindon College, Victoria Road
After a few months on the course I was moved over into the main
college to train as IT
Support staff, which involved sorting out students and staff
with Windows and other
software, setting up printers and other duties.
1987-1988
Warehouse work at Kemdent Dental Works, Purton. This involves
packing, stock control and sorting out of orders, as well as
driving a counterbalance fork lift to load and unload lorries
and place stock in the warehouse.

1978-1980
Apprentice Electrical/Electronics Craftsman,

The first six months were learning lathes, milling machines and
general metal- and

learned about soldering and other electrical activities. Also I
went to evening classes,
but as I didn't complete the apprenticeship I didn't attain the
qualification.
