rant over - its safe to come back out of your metal sheds now guys.

[kendra k]

not yet...

[coct]

yeah but kendra, it makes you ghetto and you should respec that in yourself.

nuff

[Mk.]

see, there's brats like that here, and it's soo painful to work with them. a girl i used to live with just got back from backapcking europe for a semester. she's bitching that she's out of money, but she stayed in hotels the entire time! she's not working now, her parents finally passed her a cheque. the guitar player in my band, though i love him, is also funded my mummy and daddy. it's annoying. i mean, i get yelled at for working so much, but if i don't work, i don't eat or pay for school. GODDAMN GOVERNMENT! GODDAMN POOR PARENTS!

Be rest assured that I'm nothing like that. I worked for 6 months as a greeter in my local Asda to save up for this,and I've had no money help from anybody else.

[Sykes]

Greeter?

Do you stand at the doors and say Hello, welcome to Asda, and hand out baskets??

Cool! It sounds much better than working behind a till at my local woolworths.

What do you say when you greet people? Yes, you pretty much summed the job up there. Some people actually do this full time for 36 hours a week. Have to be friendly etc

Believe me - its not. I've done that job too. Stick to your job behind the till selling pick and mix.

[Sykes]

Is it really that bad??

I suppose I better just put up with what I've got!

[Gigglyboots]

Exactly, you get paid, that's what matters.

[coct]

non taxable work is the way forward, its not even hard.

I will shoot a man for £50

[Sidders]

It must be an American thing. There's nothing wrong with people going traveling for a few years.

[kendra k]

american universities are MONEY! and your average middle class person must pay dearly.

gap years are for posh asses.

[Mk.]

I enjoyed being a greeter. It was basically a chance for me to chat to the regulars and co-workers for 8 hours at a time. I can think of less enjoyable way's to earn a living.

[coct]

kendra is college different to a university then or are you just trying to make us understand as our college is your high school.

you have screwed up education, look at the state of your country

[kendra k]

college and university are pretty much interchangeable here. it seems like colleges are in universities, though junior/community colleges stand alone. i work for the college of chemistry but i'm in the college of letters and science, and i attened the university of california at berkeley. your colleges must be like our high schools. i don't think our education system is THAT screwed up.

[Sidders]

I'm in the university of Sheffield Hallam, in the school of Engineering.

[coct]

sheffield poly you mean.

I'm going to be at the university of salford in the school of construction. Bling, or the university of sheffield in the school of economics (shady)

[Mr Dion]

im going to Oxford Brookes University, School of health something or other to do Occupational Therapy

[Sidders]

Sheffied Polly my ass, 90% of students in Sheffield agree that Sheffield Hallam is a better uni than Sheffield Uni.

[kendra k]

sour grapes sidders, sour grapes.

or at least that's what your mom from sheffield uni told me.

[coct]

Only because it's in the city center, i'm right coz i will be too but its only business and computer science that is. The rest of sheffield is suburban hell

[Mk.]

Seen as it's something of a special show, I'm listening online again. Very good so far! It's good to catch up and see how the shows going every now and then.
