    What is your job (if working), and does it affect your QPR support?

    I'm retired now, but I was a plumber, and if I had stayed in my last job, I would have had to partake in some evening and weekend shift-work, thus missing some games. Which would have impacted on whether I bought an ST or not. So retirement solved that one for me.

          Corporate sales with a huge car manufacturer.
          No weekend work, relaxed gaffer who's a big Gooner, so knows the score when it football.
          Got a box at both Arsenal and Spurs next year.. SO I'll be watching the hammering in luxury.

                    I have quite an unusual job
                    I find things before other people lose them
                    Quite flexible hours and salary
                    I can be at work at any time so doesn't impinge on QPR time
                    .

                      I do some out of hours work and on-call so this sometimes affects games, mainly midweek though.

                            Construction material sales with flexi time so can take time off midweek for away games and usually try and work a Saturday morning in the office as I get time in lieu for doing so and paid as well for what is basically four hours looking at the internet and locking the door and setting the alarm when I leave

                            Also try to do Saturdays when we are at home as the office is in Paddington and those lieu days help the old England trips

                              I train people like Jeffro to gain appointments to sell cars and work all over the country. Week day games are a no-no as I work Monday to Thursday most weeks.

                              (Mrs Oldhoop does the same job as Jeffro but is Premier League by comparison)
