    Please can someone review my CV?

    For the uni study you did, just say put that on your CV. I put my PGCE on my CV that I didn't complete to make it clear what I did for a year. I've not had any employer question why there's no grade or anything on it. If they ask, tell them the truth but much better to have it on the CV than...

    It pays to complain !

    Went to the new Wahaca restaurant in Edinburgh on Saturday. Had to wait 30 minutes to order food as waitress forgot us. Got 50% off the bill and the food came super quick once she'd done apologising.

    Is it worth getting a degree?

    Definitely do it, especially if you're getting it free. With the OU you can get other quals (CertHE, DipHE) along the way to your degree, so you can have quals on your CV before you finish the degree. Once you get the undergrad, you can then move on to more specialist postgrads. The main...

    Good Online MS Office Training Courses

    Could look at the European Computer Driving License. Lots of local schools/colleges run it.

    CV Gaps

    Err, it's illegal for an employer to ask for you to declare health issues prior to making a job offer other than in very specific situations https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/85013/employment-health-questions.pdf

    Show us your kitty cats

    If you haven't already, check Animal Friends Insurance out. I'm paying £6 a month for our 8 year old indoor cat. It's barely anything and gives us peace of mind should anything happen.

    TargetJobs is good for IT. Assuming you're in England, National Careers Service is your local careers service and their website is pretty good for advice on CVs. It has a CV builder which in a pinch is an ok starting point.

    got a third worth bothing with masters?

    All 3 that I mentioned have internal programmes for promotion etc, the graduate schemes just fast track it to an extent. Obviously these companies and the others out there look at far more than the degree classification. What knowledge have they developed in the subject area? What skills have...

    Magic the Gathering (MtG)

    With a good teacher 7 is perfectly able to learn the game. I agree with the above poster that finding your local shop that runs magic tournaments is worthwhile. The staff should know the game and show you the basics, rather than trying to learn the basics together. So that you know, the puzzle...

    No Man's Sky

    Jason Bourne to return.

    One of the worst films you've ever seen? Wow that's some hyperbole if ever I saw it. The film is an enjoyable action film. It's clearly not as good as the original Bourne movies but it's fine for what it is, once you accept the IT stuff is really dumb.
