What annoys me about it is that you'll get an employment minister rhapsodising on telly about all these initiatives and training opportunities on offer, but the reality is many of the schemes have been trimmed to fuck - this list I saw, seriously there had been about 20 odd options on it and there was now only 1 still active.

Also, the idea of on the job training has gone. My first job was doing basic computer graphics for LED advert things. Knew nothing about puters but had artistic flair and got the job on the strength of that. I did a few a couple of weeks of on-the-job training, being paid a wage too, and then I had learned enough the do the job proper. That situation just does not exist anymore.
