Some good news to start the weekend 12:15 - Jun 14 with 7046 viewsThe_Romford_Blue

Just been offered my dream job.

I am now an odds compiler for a betting firm with their office based next to Sandown Racecourse where I am now. I’m to be the trader (in a team of 5) that prices up the horses along with a few smaller sports.

I’m over the moon

Congratulations Rommers. Hope it's a massive success for you.
Assume part of your negotiation was for 'adequate time' to concentrate on TWTD?

I walked in today to meet the team and there was about 25 screens showing various sports and they all had laptops and iPads out watching various betting markets. Looked like plenty of screens to TWTD it up as and when haha

Lovely stuff Rommers, nice to hear someone doing a job that they really enjoy, quite a rarity these days.

Sandown Park is my favourite course, had many happy afternoons there (if not necessarily profitable!)

Favourite day was the 1984 Whitbread Gold Cup when the Queen Mother's horse, Special Cargo, got up in a three-way photo.

Have fun.

Great news! Just be a bit careful on some of the posts here moving forward - wouldn't want someone with any past spitefulness etc to a) identify where you work and then b) misconstrue any responses or future tips. People can be c***s.

Ignoring that - really fantastic news though. Sounds like something you'll enjoy!

Excellent news.

Is there a guarantee career path with that or is it a bit of a gamble?

Little update to this - they called me today and asked if I’d be able to start next Monday rather than the original planned date of July 7th.

So as of next week I’ll be getting double the money of my current betting shop job and more importantly doing something I’ve wanted to do for the last 10 years. Very excited.

Thanks for everyone who’s messaged me on here and twitter as well
