Shortage of Engineers in the UK.

[doodab]

I returned to the UK a few months ago. My current plan is to get out permanently ASAP. It's a tuliphole and the job market is ****ed.

Airports must be in chaos every couple of weeks as hordes of CUK'ers and their friends rush to leave the country after each latest bit of bad news!

Form what I have seen, it seems most UK airports are in chaos more or less constantly.

The killer for the UK will be when the last UK worker is outsourced or Bob'ed and all the big consumer facing companies wonder why no-one can afford to buy their products.

Place I'm at now announced huge successes in their efficiency and customer complaints reduction efforts then in the next paragraph said that that meant they no longer needed 600 people and those jobs would be outsourced. Yay for business ethics and employee relations!

Oh I don't know. Life in a nice area of London is very pleasant and my sector is booming.

In your sector, I have heard you described as "the cream" sasguru.
The thick bit you get at the top obviously!

Nobody is ever going to get this nation's engineering industry back again with political change.

The unions tried for years to down play the industry always painting the "the engineer" as a salt of the earth type working on the line with his grubby overalls and milky tea and to be defended because they never earned enough. Engineering is though of as a lower class industry.

We went from the great egg race to the apprentice. Heinz Wolf to Sugar, Professor of Engineering to Labour knighted barrow boy pedaling quick rich scheme ideas to children. Thanks feck I will be retired by the time his young fans get into the office place and think aggressive one up man ship is better than collaborative work practices.

I needn't tell you engineering experience out here is somewhat different.

That's another thing, It's full of smug *******.

Oh I don't know. Germany seems to be full of bitter, impoverished, medicocre expats.
