Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Do not, under any ircumstances, accapt career advice from an internet forum

But if you do, take this advice: avoid, at all costs, retail (high street) banking.

You can have my job if you want.
You'll probably have to move to India to do it mind.

You could join the exciting* world of the Civil Service like me.

Excitement not guaranteed

It is if you join HMRC. If you go into the uniformed side you can annoy the hell out of people by stopping them after a 22 hour flight and detain them indefinitely while you check for illegal importations.

Or you can be a VAT inspector [as I was] and bill people who have been cheating for years. And if you go into fraud work, you can kick their doors in at 6am and seized all their records and computers. And listen to numerous conversations confirming what you already know - Customs DO have more powers than the police.

Or you can stop lorries under this new regime they were bringing in. Stop vans and check for diesel.

Or you can go after the labour gang masters which is in our remit.

Plenty of scope for excitement in Customs :P

Fast food server and part time dinner lady is not as fulfilling as it sounds.
