alt q (because the top one is barely a question worthy of the name): what's the worst or stupidest exercise you've ever done?

Mine was a Zumba dance lesson where the instructor made us dance to the birdy song :(

they don't envision ever being able to earn that much. They often don't realise the difference it could make :(
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Tue 12 Oct 2010, 19:41, Reply)

Well, if you don't hit £20k, then you don't get charged a penny, and after 30 years it's wiped out.
If you're a graduate and you don't hit the 20s, the odds are without the degree you'll be on min wage.... at a guess without known facts. So racking it up into percentages that's quite a differance.

And the poorer families will all be taken care of in schemes according to the reports, so I reckon it's the middle of the road people and those who are going to drink'n'drug the whole thing that are the most fucked.

As you'll have about as much in the way of skills and work experience as a 16 year old school leaver, you certainly will be on the minimum wage.

During the last year and a half,
thanks to my job I've learnt more about physics, chemistry and mechanics than I ever did at school or college. This definitely proves something.

Probably that spending seven years copying out bits of the textbook, then selectively burping them back up in the exam without any real understanding isn't the best way to learn things.

It doesn't affect me.
I'm already in the system, it won't change for me.

I've discussed it with friends, especially as several of us voted for LibDems, and they're obviously now backing increased fees rather than abolishing them.
