It wasn't too long ago i worked long hours in removals. It still remains the only job (among quite a few) i've had that day to day I happily felt something was achieved and didn't go home drained.
[edit] I've been working as an EE/SE for the last 4 years.
I graduated 5 years ago with a maxed 2K overdraft. Last year I went to the bank to reduce the limit and the nice lady informed me I hadn't been paying interest the whole time on it, she promised to not to tell.
I gave up on these "startup advice" posts a while back if it was their 1st startup. If I could be bothered to read them I'd just read them as anecdotal evidence to their success/failure.
