I'm considering if my morals will stop me applying for a well paid job.
I think my laziness will cause more problems.

And it's that specialisation that makes it so well paid.

it's a big step from raping to waiting to be asked how much you charge for a blowie. I think you have to go on a course first, and undergo a bit of CBT before they let you down the docks.

What's the moral issue?

It's a trap, DG, A TRAP.

Going from NHS
to a company that makes money from paid SMS's like X-factor text votes competitions porn that sort of stuff.
They provide the infrastructure rather than actually running X-Factor, I'm not the devil.
(PsychoChomp, Wed 15 Dec 2010, 11:31, Reply)

They provide a service people use and get paid for it.
I fail to see any issue with this.

Yeah, but it's the X Factor Noel...

No it's not, it's a text-message infrastructure company.
They're bystanders in the evil genius empire of Cowell.

Better still, if he's involved with said infrastructure
He could use his charm and wit to sabotage the whole ghastly mong-parade that is the X-factor.

They're eventually trying to turn mobile phones into a form of credit card
removing all the checks involved in getting a credit card.

I'm just a bit iffy about the company but the pay rise will be in the tens of thousands of pounds so I might just suck it up.
(PsychoChomp, Wed 15 Dec 2010, 11:35, Reply)

Better than sucking it up.

( Noeli overtheshoulderboulderholderthingstraplatchboobs, Wed 15 Dec 2010, 11:36, Reply)

Suck it up for a bit
stash a load away, then leave to start up your very own paperclip company like you've always wanted.

oh yeah I meant to reply to that

we dealt with getting one of those companies fined tens of thousands for sending unsolicited porno texts
and they couldn't pay it, went under. always check the stability of any new employer first.

doesn't mean you can't go for the interview though, any interview experience is never wasted in my opinion.

It's a multinational looks like at least 15 offices in America Europe and the middle east.
It's not a provider it's the people who run the messaging infrasturcture. So the actual servers and stuff not the things that go through it.

could be big business in future
might be a good move, given what may happen to the NHS

What will happen to the NHS
It's already starting. :(

I got told the other day
that subject to being able to find someone internally to fill my post, I can take my voluntary redundancy. I am hoping this happens.

Hooray!
I know you've been trying for a redundancy.

Still needs a few things sorted out though.
The figure I was given may not be the actual sum I receive; it depends on what happens with the superannuation bill. If I get what was projected, I'll go; if it's less, I'd have to think about it.
