University vs tattoos

Greetings,

It’s horrible out here so dress warm and wear something water proof.

I just paid my tax bill and am looking for another cleaning job. Talking of jobs, I’ve been interviewing people on the radio every day for national apprenticeship week. All I can say is they aren’t what they used to be. Always thought of a young plumber who makes the tea and does the easy stuff for £80 a week. And while I’m sure those still exist, the typical apprenticeship is very different and could well work better for some people than leaving with a debt of £40k (which gets paid off well after you’ve got grey hairs).

Earning as you learn is a brilliant option for some people.

There is a part of me that would love it if that is what my boys chose to do. I want to tell you that my reasoning is based on something wholesome but I can’t.  I’ve been putting money aside (even though I’m broke) every month since they were born because up til now I’ve expected my children to go to university.  That’s right EXPECTED!! The amount of arguments I’ve had about that word in relation to my kids. I interview too many young princes and princesses of whom nothing is expected. Nothing good anyway.   But now I am swaying towards this apprenticeship thing.   Then I can use the money I put aside for them and buy that nice car, go on that holiday, get that tattoo and piercing. Rahhh

I’m gonna be bleeping as I go through that scanner at the airport.😂

Have a wonderful day 🧡
