      I’m currently unemployed due to my injury but was looking at getting back into a job. How many of you fine folk here have a job and use their car to get to said job?

        I have a job, but then, I am the nominated driver as my wife is blind. That said, she has a full time job too and I take her and her guide dog to her place of work. So I suppose that meets your criteria.

         

        In life, it's not who you know that's important, it's how your wife found out.

          Thanks @Abercol, I’m just trying to see how common it is for people on here to have a job. Thanks for your answer ?

              I have a job but I don’t need to use my Motability car for work as I get a company car.

                        I tried dying young, smoking & alcoholic for a bit, riding (and crashing at silly speed) motorcycles, hanging out with Hells Angels, travelling to dangerous parts of the world, getting stabbed (in UK not the aforementioned dangerous parts of the world), surfing & swimming with sharks in the Pacific regularly, divorced several times & even a plane crash.

                        It didn’t work…report card, as usual, says Must Try Harder…lol.

                            I have a job, albeit very part time and requiring a team of three carers to enable me to do it. My car (Motability or otherwise), is essential to get me there.
