    I finished college 3 years ago and only had 1 'wage rise' since then, despite getting 2 promotions <grr> They said my day at college was included in my wage, so I shouldn't be paid more when I changed to 5 days in the office.

    If I wanted sent to uni I would have to have taken a 20% wage cut and pay for the course myself.

    What department do you work in? I've heard the only decent money in freelance is mechanical engineering. I'm geotech so nothing I do has to be exact mm or anything, I just put 5m radius symbols on plans to show a 72mm borehole <laugh> <accurate>

    Architects are always the worst for cad. Everything on 0 layer <grr>

    Guy sent me topo surveys of before, during and after site works so I could work out volumes excavated. Opened them up and in every single one he had exploded everything to single lines, moved the tiles around and they were all at different rotations with no common point <doh> I emailed him back a picture of massive tits <ok>

    i hate ****s that draw on one layer too. I have been asked to re do the cad standards to make them as good as my old office, haven't acutally started yet, i plan to put it off as long as possible.
