Thanks Kevin, I hope the new job works out for you. I'm damn glad to be out of that rat race, theres nothing like the feeling of insecurity you get when the workplace looks a bit dodgy.I got drafted as a teacher, thats one job you really have to royally be out of luck to lose.

Drafted? Yup. I applied for a free all grants paid for Bachelors degree, generous grants too, covered everything including wife and three children. So I fancied a degree in Art or maybe Computing but on passing the entrance exam was informed that the deal was teacher or no deal.
