    A trainer in a public company get naff all. A consultant hired in to do training gets lots.

    A teacher gets naff all. A supply teacher gets a lot.

    Just all become supply teachers.

    You think they're bad, try Leicester City Council

    Did a stint there a few years ago. Never again... it all went downhill after the head of department went on a basic DreamWeaver course, and couldn't understand why a database-driven Ajax application (although we didn't call it Ajax then) might take a little longer than building two pages about kittens and knitting
