    Got my ass a job

    With the end of my 7th form year approaching i finished my last day at work experience yesterday, had a chat to the boss and he said he'd be more than happy to support me though a toolmaking apprentiship. Totally stoked right now, had the most awesome ride home!

    Excellent news youngun.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Many, many congrats - I'm with MDU on that one. Despite the considerable attempts of the Labour Government and Noel Scott in particular to stuff up the best apprenticeship system in the world, it's still pretty darned good and you'll be in demand everywhere. You'll also have the satisfaction that you'll add more value to the country than lawyers and accountants (now watch the fur fly ). You wouldn't guess that I'm an engineer, would you?

    I'm still at school, have 3 bikes and only just got a job which i haven't started full time yet... maybe later.

    Good thing about work is that it's a 90km round trip. and it only takes 30 minutes each way without doing anything silly
