    You want a job to bring pennies in Phil, you don't need a degree to do that do you?

    Instead of sitting and mulling over what is best, why not get ANY job and then mull over what you want to do, cos sitting and mithering people ain't gonna bring a bean in is it?

    Shell, I know what I want to do, I want to be involved in some day to day running of a place so be that in purchasing or H and S or running the photocopying room.

    So get some experience in your belt of just working in an office for starters.

    You don't need a degree to do that!

    Don't you kind of get the idea you're wasting your breath? :o;)
    Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.

    That is true! I do need experience. But I will still be proud of my degree even if others don't think much to it.

    pick up a jobs paper and look for managers jobs. Have a look if they ask for experience or a degree.

    Once you've found out the answer soak the paper in petrol, stick it in your ear and set it on fire.

    A lot of managers jobs do require a degree, some don't.

    I am looking for a low stress job at first. Just being an office assistant would do me for a while.
