Re: Uni...

Hiya

I'm classed as working in IT, but ask a techy question and I havent got a clue lol. I work for Tier 1 manufacturer In charge of North with targets of 320 million p.a. I have quite good GCSE's, no degree, no further education (dropped out of college in last year), but earn well above average income for the area, company car and expense account, work from home with hours I dictate so I can drop my child off at 9 and pick him up at 5 etc etc etc. I could probs earn more, but my company has been absolutely fantatsic with me about my child and circumstances and I dont have the additional proessure of fighting rush hour traffic, trying to get home at reasonable hour, lack of suppport etc etc

My best friends has 4 grade A A levels, Degree in English and works in London as a receptionist for 18k. Its not just education these days, but attitude, experience and (for me at least) luck.
