Not necisarrly Steve, it happens yes. But to be honest its down to the people. Getting a Degree dont entile you to a job.

I done it as i was stuck in dead end job and kinda left school with not the best GCSE's as i couldnt be arsed with it. Since i gone to uni i have had a lot more oportunities happen. After all when i was working for 6-7months this year after 3 weeks of working there i got my bosses job after she left and i was in charge of people. Wouldnt have happened if i didnt go to uni to learn shit.


But as you said people make life without going to uni, just all down to what you want to know. If you want to be Engineer you never going to just fall into that job. You need to learn how to do crap
