Er "undergraduate degree"?
Isn't that an oxymoron? By definition, an undergraduate is someone who hasn't yet obtained his or her degree. Perhaps, dear Ed, you mean a "first degree" or a "bachelor's degree"?
there should be a poll, qualifications versus salary.

let's see how it all paid off!
Left school at 15 - No qualification. Took some as an adult. No where for that??
I assume those who are supposed to be working and spend the day on here are hardly likely to complete the first part accurately.
I think that I'm getting the hang of this ! ! ! Can we have a box to tick for if we don't want to tick any of the other boxes ? ? ? Oooh please.
<<I assume those who are supposed to be working and spend the day on here are hardly likely to complete the first part accurately.>>

LOL squarebear

Private Sector - under pressure - and on AB. Guilty as charged. But my defence is that I was lured onto here by the Newsletter email.
.
Ed, why don't you change Q1 -C to read "not working", then that would cover the unemployed as well as people who choose not to work, or work in the home (probably not the best choice of words but you know what I mean)?
Good shout boxy -i just dont work although had to tick something else inappropraite but see its fixed now BUT c'mon we all want to know who has the PhD?????

Who has the Doctorate -dont be shy:))
What about people who left school before the age of 16 and with no qualifications? I can't answer question two at all.
Where does the section 'Poll Discussions' play a real part in AB.? I never see anything of real interest in the listed Topic.

Ron
did AB set these poll questions, or taken from other sites ?
This is the situation when one parent is the breadwinner.Fathers who stay at home to look after children are known as House husbands.Women who look after children WERE known as house wives but are now called Domestic engineers!! These are both unpaid jobs but the hours are 24/7. Does anyone agree with me?
