UNI Rant

[Niall]

Seconded....I said from day one of 6th form that I didn't want to go to university, but did want to learn more in those two years to help me with a career. My teachers pushed and pushed, ignoring my very valid reasons for not wanting to go (my mum was sick at the time), making me feel bad for wanting a career as soon as I left school. My Dad has built his own company from career experience, not uni, and it's what I want to do to. I've always been like that. But nooooo, not good enough for the school figures!

I feel I've got the right job for me and 4 years experience behind me that is invaluable.

Exactly this! Tbh look at the likes of Richard Branson or Alan sugar. Did they go to Uni? Nope!

Stress again that I'm not dismissing Uni completely. Just don't think people should go straight from school o Uni with no concept of the real world
