Sian wins!

 

I snogged a really attractive girl called Sian at university.

Which was nice.

But she later killed herself, which was less so.

I don't think the two incidents were linked.

 

Well that's pretty morbid.

Yeah, that was pretty dark actually! Sorry!

 

Now I'm miserable

 

I watched as a mate of mine(when I was 11) climb a telegraph pole and hit his head on the wooden struct fell and died. Just to add to the topic.

 

Jesus.

I have a suicide story too but I'm not going to tell it because it's Friday and Friday should be a happy day.

 

I haven't known any people to commit suicide but today I taught my dog a new trick, he can squeak his dog toy on command now. It's pretty adorable.

 

My cat sits and rolls over when told.

 

Sounds like your cat is having an identity crisis...

 

She is insane, she doe's forward rolls etc.

 

Beefy, I think I have news for you...she's not a cat.

 

I'd much rather have a bear that waves on command.

Oh god.

 

that is a VERY rare case. it is the same with apprenticeships, they take you on with the promise of this and that after so many months and years. then at the end, there is nothing there for you. its just an easy way for corporations to have free/cheap labour. not being funny but I deserve to be paid for honest work! I have rent to pay! im not 16 anymore.

 

I understand

just at the age of 21 or older with rent etc to pay why should we have to work for free just because there are too many people and not enough jobs? ive worked hard at my school career for 17 years! not to mention the fact that at 21 my parents were already married. what if you want to get married and have children after you leave uni or you already have some, you cant just work for free and really, you shouldn't have to. that should all be done whilst you are at school/college/uni.

its very rare that you get given this gold plated contract after a few months of working somewhere free. its just a way to rip off the little people. if you are doing work, you deserve to be paid for it.

 

I've got a full time job at the moment but I'm looking to do some voluntary work as a graduate at weekends/evenings. It will be ****ing hard work but the end results will be worth it (hopefully).

Jen, what you need to understand is long gone are the days where you can get a degree and just walk into a graduate job. You are competing against dozens of other graduates, maybe hundreds and you need to make sure you stand out otherwise your CV will be tossed aside.
