The 'Today's Job' thread

[Monkeybusiness]

I often find myself doing something a bit different and thinking ‘some sad fk would watch this on youtube’

Then I consider all the effort required to film and edit and think about something else.

I hardly even take photos on a lot of jobs! It’s all routine to me. Maybe with a camera in the cab and AI doing the editing it could work.

Same - much of my work-life is dull as f**k with the odd bit of excitement/interest (usually a cock up!). However, I see links here/other forums/sent by mates etc of YouTubers who seem to make serious money literally broadcasting boring shiiiiitttteee (which must float plenty of boats somehow I guess, as clearly people are watching it?!??).

I think the important bit to remember is they ‘seem’ to make a serious amount of money. I have my suspicions that a lot is smoke and mirrors .

Agree. I think there are a few who get pushed to the top depending what they are pushing.
Look at the government haven't they just confirmed they've spent around £2 million on influencers in the last year

Sometimes id be interested in watching YouTube clips of different stuff but theres only so many hours in the day! We normally chill out for 1hr of telly each night before going up to our pit. Don't think the other half would stand for me watching @Gunners . Saying that me and the boy just watched a few short clips on battle of Hastings as he's learning about it in school. How's your luck we beat off the vikings then got turned over by some bloody frogs! Apparently tower of London was built by/for William.
