Inspired by Gamers post about the "joys" of school, I thought it would be interesting to see which you preferred - school or work? _________________ Helen, the Administratrix of www.area51newmexico.com

Can't really vote here as I haven't had any experience in working. Give it a few weeks (that's when I'll be on work experience) _________________

I cant say either but I guess that a job would be better as you get paid and dont get any homework! _________________

Aye but some jobs you have to take work home with you. Also you're at school for about 5 hours a day but at work for 8 hours. Plus you get bloody loads of holidays from school but at work you get about 4 weeks if you're lucky. _________________ Helen, the Administratrix of www.area51newmexico.com

There's things that are good and bad about both. School you don't get paid, work you do. Work for long hours, school is shorter. etc. etc. _________________

EMA ???
There was no bloody thing as EMA when I were a lad!
In my day, you went to school to learn... it seems the yoof of today wont do anything without being offered money... - don't know you're born...
This has become a repeating rant of mine
When I left junior school to go to secondary school, I just 'left'
My brother, had a 'valedictory'
The school put on a disco for his year. Then a few days later they had a presentation with all the parents there, where each pupil was given a bible, a thesaurus and a dictionary. Where was my bloody disco, bible, thesaurus and dictionary? - why didn't I get any of that ?
If there was a choice for me, today to go to school (and get paid while doing it) to just sit there and listen to some person drone on about something or other for an hour or so, I'd know which option id take... _________________ I should update my sig. What to put here for $CurrentYear ? |

you swear wrong cos Im at college (last day today ) and people get EMA here. Its any higher education after secondary school you get EMA then at uni it turns to grants and loans because you need alot more money _________________
