    As others have said, no job is secure. It might seem so but really it isn't. ;)

    I used to work for a company which provided school transport, now you would think this sounds secure. After all, children go to school everyday right? Schools provide transport for children to get to school. Children have to go to school, its the law.

    Council review tenders = company looses tenders = I loose job = children still go to school anyway.

    Sometimes things happen which are out of our control.

    Give it a few months and your Direct Debits will be like Rubber Jonny.

    You would have found out that real life is quite expensive and your meagre £500 a month is nowhere near enough to survive. Your payments to granny will be first to be ditched when the Payday loan companies want their money back.

    You're an adult now, you have responsibilities, one of those is to stand on your own two feet.

    It is abhorrent that you want to let your grandparents fund your lifestyle. You're a disgrace.

    Hope that helps. :)
