Now, I appreciate you're quite hard of thinking so I suggest you turn you're limited intellect to actualy reading what I said. I always though that Dune was up there as the dumbest f**k on here but the more I read of your stupidity the more to realise that he's no where near you in the dumb as f**k race. As an ex-member of the forces I appreciated my pension provision and used it to my advantage in my next career. That said, you're whinging about how hard done by you are is rather pathetic. Forces pensions, if you reached a decent rank after 12/22 etc, are much better that the vast majority of the populations. I always considered my forces pension as generous compared to my civi oppos and it certainly worked out that way when I transfered it into my occupational pension.

Correct, unless you want to relocate to Bangalore and Mumbai as thats where all the recruitment is now and going mad as can't get the skills there anymore. PS Get an ITIL and go into Service Management...putting right all the fck ups they keep making out their due to all the good staff leaving every 3 - 6 months and company hopping.
