LIFE IN BRITAIN
What jobs
were you offered when you came to England?
I was offered 5 different
jobs but I did not take any. So I started repairing cars and lorries
and the week after that I returned to the Royal Air Force. There was
another job I had which was working at the Post Office. I worked
there for 33 years.
What job was
the hardest?
Well, I have to say it
was working on the farm which was very hard but my nicest job was
working in the post office. I sort of had good and bad
jobs.
What job did
you think you were best at?
To tell you the truth, I
liked repairing aircraft and I think I was good working in the post
office and sorting letters.
Did it feel
strange when you came to England?
It felt very, very
strange because I left Jamaica at 75 degrees and when I came here it
was -3º. People had different accents which felt a bit strange
too. But I did feel at home.
What did
people think when you came to England?
At first people thought
black people couldn't drive buses which is a load of rubbish
!
