What job should I have?
You probably have more idea than I do.
Here's a thread for you to discuss how you got to where you are today. Are you doing what you wanted to do? What's it like? Perhaps you are in the process of looking for a graduate scheme or figuring out what path to take. What are your ideas?

Somebody's got to pack it all up for the old ladies.

It won't be relevant to DAS but there's a possibility of a broadcast news monitoring job going in Leeds, around 16 hours weekends only. You need to be a very speedy audio typist with excellent spelling and grammar and a knowledge of current affairs, people in the news etc..
It's not fantastically remunerative but would suit a student perhaps? Send me a private message for details.

I've always fancied being a property developer, but I wouldn't have the feintest idea where to begin with that!!

choosing a career is one of those things which comes naturally to some and others seem to struggle never really settling with anything (i'm the former, my sister is the latter)
i guess you could always do a nobrainer career move like going into the police or armed forces if worse comes to worse.
i'd never want to go into anything institutionalised and regimented like that - it seems to be easy to get in nowadays, apparently there is a dire shortage of new 'cannon fodder' recruits in the raf and the police recruit any old idiot nowadays.

I thought most police forces had moved to positive discrimination nowadays.
Don't they specifically encourage idiots to join?

Do you really think people capable of unassisted thought could be trusted to enforce our asinine laws?
