No, I'm just far too honest and declared my income etc. Wish I never bothered now.

I actually had to leave as the UK is a sinking ship regarding car design. Might change soon though

They take over £100 a month off me and I haven't had a single letter/statement in the 2 years since I left uni.

Infact I didn't have any correspondence in the last two years of uni either

I found it helps if you go into an industry that more people are dying out of than are coming in to. I made one phonecall the November after finishing uni; I phoned on the Thursday, had an interview on the Friday, started on the Monday

Since then I've been to 4 interviews in 2 years and been offered 6 poisitions in total. I haven't taken any of them yet

being a student is hard for me anyway, doing full time hours and about 20 hours a week working aswell....it really pisses me off. i would rather work than take out a student loan though so at the end of uni there won't be a single worry about money.

That's some piss poor banter right there Mister 'tray

You must be under the weather.

I hope you are feeling better soon dear.

Incidentally, I have been drinking so please take no offence at my comments.
