Peter Fatead worked in a bank but one day he decided to make a drastic change and he became a bodyguard for a singer, Stella Stardust. Now he has to be with Ms. Stardust constantly and, of course, he doesn't have to stick to office hours, but does he like his new job? Careers magazine met Peter in his London flat to find out.
"Yes, I think this job is great," said Pete, "I have to work long hours and I must follow Stella all the time, but I meet a lot of famous people every day and I see all her concerts from the front row! Really, I should watch the fans, not Stella, while she's singing - a bodyguard mustn't lose concentration - but she's so beautiful ..."
And what about Pete's family life?
"Well, yes I suppose I should spend more time with my wife and my six children and, to be honest, my wife sounds a bit irritated on the phone, but she should be happy - I send home a lot of money every week!"
