OD404 Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 So my uncle's wage isn't a fact. Ok then. But are we talking about technical engineering, proffessional engineering or working on the a production line engineering. Oh another fact for you all my friend's dad was talking to me about engineering and he said he recently changed job and the company asked him what sort of salary he was looking for. ← I never said it wasn't a fact, it is a fact, but only one and that's not enough on which to base an argument... I was also talking about professional engineering and, seeing as I will be joining the prosfession in the next year or so (when I graduate from my degree), I've had a good look at what sort of wages I can expect to recieve. As I said before the average graduate starting wage is now somewhere around the £17k mark, but jobs can have a salary of as little as £13k, though most of us can expect to be earning around the £30k mark. For more management based role (project leader, head of department etc) expect in excess of £50k (I'll refer to my previous example of one of Ford top engineers. £120k really is at the top of what engineers can earn (any chance of you telling me who he works for?). As for being asked what wage you are looking for, I was asked that in one of my interviews for my industrial placement.... Just because you're asked, doesn't mean you are gonna get a top end salary, it's generally for the company to see what your perceptions are and how happy you will be with what they are going to pay you.

Yet I usually get abuse or threats, not saying they could pull the threats off just saying it has nothing to do with vunerability.

andyroo Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 what.. you disagree with what im saying? explain why. ← No, I agree with what your saying you plonker!!! If he was comfortable with himself, he wouldnt need flesh tunnels and long hair to make a stand about his personality, but he does, which then leads on to what your signature says You're very edgy aren't you!?

ctc_666 Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Everybody these days has long hair and flesh tunnels. You aren't really individual at all. Also £50 for a few flesh tunnels is a bit expensive. I have a 5mm tunnel and it has cost a fiver to do. I honestly dunno how youv'e spent £50. As for the school being sexist is a bit bs. Them telling you that you had to cut your hair is a bit silly but thats all. Writing to the paper about it is daft though. Just wait til you leave school to get piercings and stuff. At uni you can look what you want and bascially do what you want. I would never get away with the piercings I have now at school. You can even go into lectures pissed if you want. You cant do that at school (Y) Jonny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lecturers at bournemouth generally don't care as long as you aren't throwing your guts up or causing any other distraction... As far as they're concerned it's up to you. That's generally speaking of course... Main problem is the piss you need 10 minutes into the lecture which you didn't need to begin with :P Edited April 30, 2005 by echobikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
