Does the job you have effect your gains?

I have really wondered this and I am very very curious.

I am currently a bank teller and I sit in pretty much the same spot for about 6-7 hours a day 6 days a week and believe me it is driving me NUTSSSSSSS! and I havent seen much gains (or at least the gains I have wanted to see) however I just gave me two week notice because I am becoming a landscaper fulltime 45hrs a week.

Whats your take on this? Think I will get rid of the unwanted fat that just doesnt seem to go away?..

P.S. I didnt know where else to post this.

I drive a beer truck, very active. I think it hurts my size gains because I burn so many cals. Plus my muscles never get any rest.

tell me about it, I'm a Security Guard for a Perishables Warehouse. I'm sitting for +8 hours starring at CCTV's , but I still move around every 15 minutes to stay active.

It may help your overall fitness level by losing some extra fat, but i don't think it will help you build any muscle. If anything it may actually hurt your progress since you aren't allowing some muscle groups to rest much, especially the ones you will be using every day at work.
