Short term (very short term!) - Go shopping in Bath tomorrow and spend lots of money on new clothes!
Medium term - Complete my first year of accounting qualification. Also visit my Dad in the States.
Long term - Become a fully qualified accountant, earn shit loads of money and buy a lush house and a nice car!
Bah, my dad's an accountant. It's a time of bad jokes and interesting fish.
Second degree Mike, pray what in?

I'm hardly a stereotypical accountant though - I'm the only in my department that wears pink jumpers! He he!
Well I don't mind it and it's a good career, so I'm gonna go for it! Hard work but the rewards are good!

I said HRM you spag. I was talking about Mike the girl
Anything that pays so much just to hire, fire and tell others to do your work gets my vote
Ill even wear the pink jumper

mike you're right with the cars, lets not forget Alex managed to start uni - have his course cancelled - left uni - went home. when it came around to going back to uni deffered for another year......now hopefully i can afford to start uni THIS sept!!!!!!!!!! yay!!

Short term: finish 2nd year of degree + travelling in Summer
Medium term: finish 1st degree, then do a 1 year masters degree in something that sounds interesting, don't know what yet
Long term: job, no idea what/where etc. Might do another ski season first if I feel like it.

Finish 1st degree
Go to Japan/bum around for a year, maybe do some travelling
Do second degree (Children's Literature)/get some kind of job.
All pretty flexible.
If you want to boss people around, Mike, why don't you be a management consultant? (Or is that what you're doing only getting a degree in it first...?). They certianly seem keen to get people interested: if I get one more letter from PriceWaterhouseCoopers/Deloitte/Accenture/similar, or one more flier about bloody investment banking (note: I do an English degree, an English dergee, with words, if I WANTED to spend my life working with numbers, I'd have done a MATHS degree...) pain will be inflicted. Though probably just to me.
i thought you had to be a manager for x number of years before you can tell other people how its done?

Not going on the info they keep puttinging in my pigeon hole, sadly. Seems a twisted world where graduates who you wouldn't trust with a bicycle can wander into firms and tell people with 30 years experience where to stick it, but-such is life.
Im thinking i should be the management consultant to make sure England win the next world cup

Hoping to finish degree, travel aroung europe then oz hopefully, then find office job in management/accountancy/something in the construction industry/whatever pays well.
Jimmy

why are you obsessed with the construction industry matt?
Its where all the money is.
My housemate just got offered a job with 22k a year for the next two years, going to 30-35 after hes fully trained, choice of company car and cash for a house in birmingham
I say goat chasing in albania is pretty hot right now...

Short - Finish wapdevil.com and get a HND for it.
Medium - Go Oxford Brookes and get a Software Engineering BSc, with a year out in industry just to make sure that I'm 24 when I finish education.
Long - Join the Army and kill more people than I did when I was in the Navy.
