I'm doing ok with my working. This is my first job and though I've had a lot of anxiety, I'm doing ok. I monitor motorway cameras, though there's way more to it than that I've got to update the system every couple of minutes on the traffic congestion and weather. It's an interesting job to be honest and I'm enjoying it so far. It can be stressful but I think that's to be expected.
I'm feeling proud though that I've got to this stage in my life. A few years ago I was depressed and a anxious mess, I couldn't leave the house and didn't see much of a future and now I'm here, working and living a little. Unfortunately my physical health is pants but that's undergoing treatment so I should be better again soon if it all works out.
It looks great. The roads are such an interesting environment. What did we do without cars? My nan used to tell me stories about riding around in her dad horse and cart. How it took a day to get somewhere. I think I got sacked from my people job today hooray!! Now I get to do more of the alone, driving job.
Fantastic, well done, really pleased for you, this sounds like an interesting and important job. You have every right to be proud of yourself, this is a terrific achievement.
Your job sounds interesting. I never thought I would enjoy work this much, yet here I am loving every second of it. I'm glad you're enjoying your work. It sounds like you get to travel, that must be exciting.
I'm at work now, as you can see, lots on the roads this morning.
Well done to you. It sounds so interesting. I adore my driving job. The roads and vehicles are so amazing to observe. I love seeing the city. I ended up craving more human interaction and ended up getting a people job but now yearn for the days when I did that job full time. When it was just me, the city and the road.
That is so cool ^^
You should be so proud of yourself well done this is a big thing and it sounds like your doing amazing so far :)
Thanks Goosey. I'm feeling quietly proud at the moment, my parents are very proud as well as this has been a goal of mine for some time.
Not really no, the picture quality isn't the best. This is what I see: I can make out the cars but can't see them in detail.
Well done you! That's super cool and you should feel really proud that you're doing this ^^
I think it must be a fun job seeing what's happening on the roads.
Do you get to see many interesting cars? :)
It's not high paying but it is interesting work. It can be boring at times, the last week most of the days not a lot was going on, the cars were just sat there not moving
The picture quality isn't great it's more like an old phone with low pixels camera quality, can see the cars, but can't make out the plates on them. It's literally to monitor the amount of traffic and visibility, then also we can inform emergency services to take an alternative route if the motorway isn't moving.
motorway cameras? interesting.i never seen jobs like that listed when i did searches, is that a high paid job? and can you book people on regular cameras like if you caught someone dangerous driving or perhaps clearly speeding but the camera isnt a speed camera can your station book people for that stuff on the regular cameras?
