Christian.

Welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast. Do you love your job? If you love what you do, we'd love to hear about it. Good, Tracy. Hi guys, how you going? We're good, Tracy. So Tracy, what do you do? I'm a food technology assistant at a high school. So you're a chef? No, no, I'm just an assistant to the teachers who teach the students how to cook.

Gotcha, gotcha. I get stuff ready for the teachers in the mornings and help do shopping

and then prep it all, get it ready for the kids and they come in and they do their cook

and we get to, sorry, I get all emotional, we help them with their cook and how to learn, you know, they learn so, so much from the teachers and it's just so beautiful to watch them when they come in because some of them are quite hesitant to cook and are like, you know, oh, I'm a bit nervous, I'm scared of the fire, blah, blah, blah. And you get to help them and you see them achieve And at the end of the day, they all go home so proud of themselves.

Oh.

And it's just, sorry, I just really, really love it.

Like, I feel like this job came to me just at the right time in my life as well.

And I've got a beautiful work wife who I adore.

We work together every day.

And I work with an incredible team of ladies who just are mind-blowing.

They've embraced me as part of their own.

And I just love coming here and doing this every single day.

I never like, I don't want to go to work.

Never say. This is so lovely to hear. Now tell me this, what is it, what does it actually mean to you?

What is, what's the emotion about? What the tears? I'm dying to know. It's a lovely

so I felt like there needs to be a documentary that we can all see what goes on there. It's

an amazing place. It just, it is. It's seeing the kids and working with them one on one.

I just, I mean, I love kids anyway.

Yeah.

But being around them and seeing them have so much fun and learn and know that they can do this

and walk away from here going, I can actually do that. Yeah. And coming back the next week and going, I really enjoyed doing that miss, you know, and it's just, oh, it's just mind-blowing. It really is. I've had some really crappy jobs in my time. And what were you doing beforehand? You said that this came, if you don't want me asking, you said that it came at the right time in your life. Was that the job that you didn't enjoy beforehand? Yeah, look, it wasn't the greatest. I was delivering sanitary things to schools and hospitals and places, which isn't the most, you know, pleasant job in the world. And then I was out of work for about six months. And then a friend of mine called me and said, my sister's got a position available. Do you
