[Sussex] Hi Nik/Geoff/Anyone - can you help?

[Angelo Servini]

Thanks for your comments Geoff.

I've got no qualms about your comments - fair nuff.

And, I know what you mean about the above.  I have come a cropper
in the past from agencies myself.  Surprising that peeps even
manage to get jobs using these bods.  In fact when it comes to
MY looking for future positions, I will keep your comments in mind.

In fact, I have never got a job where my experience was not relevant!
That is just where the job market is today; as more and more employers
"talent spot" so that they don't have to train anyone, or as little
as possible.  Its a real bone of contention from my perspective as
why should I have to spend my hard earned dosh on courses/books just 
so I can do my job more effectively.  Surely if I need to expand
certain skills to do a job, the employer should fork out.  These days
getting on a course is equivalent to getting the six little numbers
on the lotto. Grrr!
