I think people are mistaken with my opinion here

I am NOT saying that people with degrees are better people or even more intelligent. I am also NOT saying that everyone with a degree has a good job or earns good money.

What I AM saying is that you need a good degree (not a fake degree or a rubbish degree in a silly subject from a bad university) to get a good job nowadays.

People used to do apprenticeships and still do for the manual trades and at the lower levels of accounting/engineering. But the people with good jobs and earning good money have degrees. Unless they actually set up the company themselves!

If you dont believe me, just go to a job website or to LinkedIn, like I suggested earlier.

I never stated that the unqualified should rule the world.

I was just pointing out that just because you dont have a UNI degree means that you are a plonker, and just because you do have a UNI degree doesnt mean that you are not a plonker.

Some have uni degrees but are the biggest fools in the land, ie they have an overinflated opinion of themselves, they know everything about every subject under the sun, and if they dont know, they invariable know someone who does (with all the relevant titles to boot.)

Looking back over an anal posters past posts, there will be a pattern, everything reverts back to who or what they know as they have the answer to every subject.

There are usually no bits of humour injected into their posts, just the same old, same old, look what Ive got, I earn, my friends earn, family earn, qualifications Ive got etc, you are all a load of scumbags, you all break the law, I move in better circles, in my circles no one is a scumbag and nobody bends the law.
Yawn, yawn, yawn, why dont you change the record?

Being professional is an attitude not a piece of paper or belonging to a recognised body.
