My Biggest DisappointmentOften the things we look forward to the most turn out to be a huge let down. As Freddy Woo puts it, "High heels in bed? No fun at all. Porn has a lot to answer for."
Well, Freddy, you are supposed to get someone else to wear them.
What's disappointed you lot?

I hold a 2:1 in English Literature.on exiting university, I was forced to temp for two years. Then I worked in a bowling alley. I then did a low-end publishing job for six months before I finally managed to get into an 18 year old's starting IT job at the age of 26.
I'm now 28 and I'm still earning well below what I really ought to be.
Had I left school and followed the same career path, I'd now be on about half again as much pay.
Any child of mine is only going to university if there's a real benefit. All this wishy-washy "graduates earn more on average with unspecified, vague city jobs and no we're not going to cite our references" just ends up putting you three or four years behind.
NO job wants an Arts grad.
