No. I'm not a driver. I do see drivers all the time though.

Spoiler for Jobs I've done:
Including part-time/vacation jobs, I've been lucky enough to be pretty well continuously employed ever since I had a newspaper-delivery round at the age of 11. My illustrious job history:-

paperboy, shop assistant, busboy/dishwasher, petrol pump attendant, animal maintenance technician (= feed and clean up after animals in science lab), porter in department store, truck driver's mate, draughtsman, architectural consultant, carpark attendant, teacher.
Now I understand why you chose that av. I'm assuming manual drafting (draughting)?

^ Yep, good old pen and ink, Plankton ! After 13 years in architecture I was made redundant in a big recession in the 'nineties. That's when I came to Mexico and changed profession, so I missed out on all that fancy CAD stuff...

I'm guessing all your design work was CAD, right?

That just doesn't sound like a job to love. Better than Burger King obviously, but still sounds like another job.
