"Hardly any jobs are what you'd call safe" . What absolute gibberish.
I've driven trains for a long time now, but I was a coded welder before. Of course my certification has long run out but I could get back into that industry tomorrow if I wanted to.
So, how safe are these jobs?, bricklayer, plasterer, roofer, electrician, plumber, gas fitter, joiner, painter/decorator, and many asociated roles in building and construction, not forgetting civil engineering, gardener, car mechanic and many other roles in the motor trade, hundreds if not thousands of different types of jobs in engineering, solicitors, teachers, accountants, nurses, care workers, many other roles within NHS, chefs, cleaners,office staff, etc etc etc. All jobs you would expect to find within an acceptable travelling time from wherever you live in the UK.
No need with any of the above jobs ( and many many more) to totally retrain or have the need to move to the other end of the country to find work if you don't want to.
Unless of course you live in RailUK cloud cuckoo land.
I think you've probably misunderstood the context of what I was trying to say to Dave 1987.
