The months of July and August are the worst. Every year at work I am forced to listen to nigh-on postmenopausal women pontificate about how their illegitimate brats have been accepted into some fucking godawful polytechnic in Essex, or worse, the University of Lincoln. The slags in question sit there with a smug look on their chubby fucking faces, awaiting a barrage of praise from their colleagues because their spawn has managed to scrape three A-level D grades. The cerebrally challenged fruit of their loins are then dispatched in the family Mondeo to incur a lifetime of crippling debt with nothing to show for it afterwards but a third class American Studies degree and liver disease.

This is essentially a giant con, pandering to the parental desire for children to better themselves as a form of social anaesthesia. The rot set in in 1992 when every provincial bus station and leisure centre could start giving out degrees, then they commercialised themselves, doling out courses in The Simpsons and Golf Course Management. It’s a giant Ponzi scheme, and people have rumbled it. If you are doing Maths/IT/Economics at a Russell Group place you’ll be fine moving along the conveyor belt to Canary Wharf. Likewise medicine and dentistry or allied health courses. Everyone else is fucked and would be better off emigrating at 18 or going on The Game.

Jiggerycock Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Another toxic legacy from the Blair government. Everyone should go to University (therefore we'll give every provincial Polytechnic the cachet of University status; bit like calling a coffee maker a 'Barista',.....sorry, they're another bunch of cunts thrown into the wind tunnel with sharpened anvils come the revolution....where was I? Oh yes....). Of course, that meant no real social mobility. Give every cunt a degree, no matter how facile or piss-simple and there's no tangible change, except a bunch of numpties hitting the service sector of our economy with an over-developed sense of self-importance and who are going to tell everyone how it's going to be, because they've got a Third in David Beckham Studies from the University of Ashby De La Zouch. .......except of course, for the smart (by which I mean non-formally educated) cunts. Suddenly the kid at school who used to shout 'Sausages'! and poke his own faeces with a stick at lunchtime? He's gone off to be a carpenter or a sparky or a plumber and is now raking it in, fleecing the David Beckham Studies redundo's. Way to fucking go 21st Century Britain!!

Guest Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Pointless qualifications enticing the academically challenged to go to 'university' instead of being another unemployed statistic fucking up government figures, when they finally do get their BSC in Romulan space craft recognition they'll come out hoping to jump straight into some cushy desk job, only to be disappointed when they're zapping an old toothless battle axes shopping in B&M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
