A 'graduate job' ....... an excuse to give a few smart-arses something to do.
Let them get their degree by earning the money for it 1st - experience of the real world will do them the power of good.

What I want to know is....... why can I not learn vocational skills? I am over 19 and don't have a job therefore not eligible for either an apprenticeship (fast track or otherwise) or NVQs. Adult education nowadays give me the choice of 101 methods of 'holistic therapy' but absolutely nothing to help me get new skills to find a bloody job!
