I'm really not sure whether or not that's a good or very sad state of affairs, I think the medical profession can get VERY underpaid, and really it isn't fair.

Tell me about it - how the hell do I spend my father's money if he's a paramedic and gets paid less than a bloody tube driver?

There is a simple solution. Pay me the wage of a paramedic and tube driver rolled together then we won't have the problem anymore.

Of course! How could I not think of that? We divert everybody's wages to Ison and everything's OK! Solved.

I can't help but get the feeling you're being slightly sarcastic...

Not at all! I know you'd spend wisely and ensure an even distribution of wealth. Putting wages under the control of you is much more sensible than standard ordinary normal people. It makes perfect sense to me.

I'm glad we're on the same wavelength here DAS - I think we should have a power lunch and put the world to rights.

A power lunch where we can think outside of the box and do some blue sky thinking? I'm feeling that buzz - let's do lunch. Do you have a window tomorrow? We could throw some ideas at the wall and see what sticks.

I'm free between 1.13pm and 1.37pm DAS - is that good for you?

I've got a few ideas I want to run up the flagpole to see who salutes it, myself.

When I was at school, I wanted to be a meterologist, then I found that Geography sucked. Then I wanted to be a newsreader. Now I wanna be a web designer. I'm slowly learning the tricks of the trade, and would love to do it professionally.

Ah the goal in life that I aspire to....

Well mine is slightly different and that is to go into investment banking! The joys! Its an area that I am interested in and actually feel happy doing. All I have to do now is complete university (BA Economics), then try and work my way up.
