Churchill doesn't have a degree of wit or intelligence.

FTFY

Imagine having again the energy, the arrogance, the opportunity of youth. And the babes.

Only if I could retain the experience I already have otherwise I'd end up making exactly the same mistakes and not appreciating what I had. As they say, "youth is wasted on the young".

[Lockhouse]

No higher education at all here. Education was only ever an issue when I started in IT. I couldn't get a job as a programmer as I didn't have a degree so got a job as a junior computer operator and worked my way up.

Would you trade your monies and hard won ltd companies to be young again?

I mean, sure, you've all got cushy high paid desk jobs faffing about with computers but at the end of the day someone is still yanking your chain - clients, customers, stupid PM's, idiot developers.

Me neither.

HND Computer Science, only 5 months out of work/on bench in 25 years, no issues here.

As was always said, mainly by HND students, its the degree for intelligent people squeezed into 2 years.

Two factually correct statements on a General thread in one day. I may have to take a lie down.

Its not quite that its because there are far too many people doing degrees. The expansion of higher education was done to hide youth unemployment back in the early 1990's.

Nothing has changed since then apart from more and more companies deciding that because a job requires 1 brain cell a degree is a requirement when years ago that job would have been (equally capably if not more capably) by a 16 year old with Grade 2 CSE english and Maths.
