    Top University graduates working in Pubs

    Value of university education falls: Graduates with degree earn 22% less in a decade | Mail Online

    If they don't get the tax down the brain drain will mean there's no-one to pull the pints...

    I'm alright Jack

        Rubbish. That "top graduate" working in a pub has a degree in Eng. Lit.
        Graduates with mathematical, scientific and engineering degrees from Russell group universities will always find a well-paying job.

          Let me guess, which group was your university in?

          Mine was in a different group. The group of worst performing universities in the country. But then I don't need a bit of paper to be successful and wealthy.

            I said it in the other thread, but what I don't understand is this; if she has a degree in English Literature, she must be capable of freelance writing, either writing books or short stories for magazines and making a living that way. If she isn't capable of doing that, I don't understand what she's actually been learning at University other than how to read and analyse old books, which isn't really a skill that's unique to English Literature graduates.

              So was mine. The group with the highest ratio of women to men.

                  Yes obviously you're one of those who are so poor, all they've got is money (and we're not even sure of that)
