Unfortunately you don`t get a choice,, they demand that you dump your old mates and only associate with coppers, ie, become a prick !! lol

If I was looking for a trade then I have always fancied tree surgeon or butcher.

 

But it doesn't matter what we would all do, what do you want to do?

I went in to do a mechanic course - i really really wanted to do it, since i was 15.

 

When i went into the careers place and sat down with a man, told him what course i wanted to do, he laughed and said "Oh are you sure you want to do that? Would you not be better doing a job better suited like a HAIRDRESSER!!!"

I replied and said no i want this - he rang the head of course and they had a right laugh at my expense the dirty b*****ds The head of the course told the man to tell me - the course was full and that I should be glad because it was all fella's enroled..

 

Well least to say i came out feeling like pure crap (as if i wasnt good enough to be a mechanic, just cause i was a girl).

I got my fella to ring up saying he wanted to enrole - well to our surprise there were actually still two spots left on the course.

 

I never mentioned it again, knocked the heart right out of me - but looking back i should of demanded a place and took no shit. But i couldnt believe the way them men got on

You should have requested it in writing, then gone to a solicitor.

I would try learning a job that will always be in demand.

I know what now, i kick myself for not doing that exact thing - but at the time i was just coming on 17 and if im honest i was embarrassed as f**k to go back in to that office, im still young enough, so i could still try again in the future.
