Graduates 'Could be Jobless For Years'

PN, I am not going to nag...would I? ;-) ...but you should eat a half large plate of raw veg/salad every single day...plus 2 x fruits (not incl banana).
Lots of antioxidants.
Best way with a little gem......1 whole one is enough for just one meal............blk olives, chopped tomatoes, 3'' cucumber chopped, olive oil, fresh parsley, perhaps spring onion or wet garlic chopped...lemon juice and half pack Feta cheese crumbled up in it. Will last 2 days......eat half each day.
Perhaps a flower on top.0 -
I suppose i'm lucky for freezer space, i have two, so have started cooking things like potatoes before they go off. But same as others living alone, when i buy salad, it's a case of eating it everyday before it goes off.
This time of year though i like it, and i've not been going the gym so really i should be eating more of it.Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

The list of courses from them used to be a mile long, packed with potentially life-enhancing stuff. Now it amounts to ECDL and adult numeracy and literacy.
I exaggerate. A little bit.
I passed my final module for my ECDL yesterday.....watch out world here I come!
Errrr.......right. :rotfl:We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Ahh yes, someone actually hit the nail on the head at last. Always been my problem - the complete inability to say whatever flim flam my superiors wanted to hear, rather than the truth as I saw it (which was always rather inconvenient as far as they were concerned as it usually highlighted their deficiencies) This is the major reason I will never be promoted despite having A levels (obtained in the 80's when they actually meant something), higher qualifications (foundation stage HR) and lots of relevant job experience.
As I see it graduates will have few problems getting a job as long as they can come up with the appropriate 'blue sky' waffle at the interview. Of course, whether they can actually do the job in question is another thing altogether - not many companies these days promote from within, or on the basis of ability, rather than 'suck-up-ability'.;) All too many companies rely on the graduate entry scheme as being the only available route for selection and promotion.SMILE....they will wonder what you are up to...........;)0
