Draughtsman And Electro Mechanical Design EngineerVarious Engineering And Mechanical Design Companies Oct 1980 - Jun 1991Leatherhead, Kingston Upon Thames, London And Throughout The South East Of EnglandAfter leaving school and working the summer at Chessington Zoo I saw a job advert in an office window for a Draughtsman. I'd always liked Techincal Drawing and Metalwork at school but this job wanted more qualifications than I had and perhaps some experience. However, I knocked on the office door and persuaded them to give me a chance. This led to over 10 years working at various companies designing and drawing Cremation Furnaces, Pottery Kilns, and Industrial Washing Machines. Then towards the end of the 1980s Mechanical and Electrical Services for Commercial and Government Buildings working at an agency that provided services to the then UK Government's Property Services Agency (PSA).When this career path ended due to various factors it all changed for me after someone said to me "They are looking for people to sell tickets over the phone at The Albert Hall". Here starts over 30 years in Ticketing!
