    I don't, and I don't think that most people on here are any less fortunate than me (finishing comprehensive in a working class family in a mining village in the 80s is hardly being lucky), I think that mainly they have made different choices to me, and that it is these choices, in most cases, which have lead our paths to diverge.

    You do seem determined, by the way, to try to look down on me, and to sneer. It maybe makes you feel superior, but please, don't then try to take the moral high ground.

    I rather think it is YOU who is guilty of looking down his nose at others. You have a very simplistic "I'm all right Jack" attitude that makes plenty of assumptions but offers little if anything in the way of help or useful advice.

    Your posts seem very narcissistic as well. It's all about, "ME, ME, ME", I, I, I", look what a good boy I am, how clever am I.

    MSE has more than its fair share of that type, unfortunately.

    What do you expect?, He is a banker after all.

    errrr...you did say BANKER right? Not another word that sounds similar....;)
  • I used to work as a JC advisor and it was one of the worst jobs I have ever done, there was minimal training and the other advisors were nasty little aggressive people that wouldn't answer any of my questions, I pretty much had a nervous break down working there. I ended up just walking out as I couldn't face it any more.

    Just as you have silly targets to complete and booklets to fill and the other side have just as many targets and boxes to tick. Just accept its what you have to do to get money (on both sides) and try and smile and be nice then go away and do your REAL job search elsewhere!

    Before you condemn people as useless and from "anther planet" maybe try and see the world from their POV for a bit.
