It just goes to show that some young people can achieve what Sam has. Most youngsters these days are more concerned with drinking or are always in trouble through stealing etc.
I congratulate Sam, and his hard work has paid off. Well done.

Sam good luck mate you had the opportunity and you took it with both hands.

Paula and Danimal you appear to be putting young people down, your comment says to me that you see our younger generation as bone idle, boozed up thugs, sorry that’s not true!!!! In fact our younger generation could say of us that we are spineless, bone idle cowards who will stand for anything this government thrown at us.
Under Maggie Thatcher’s government we all stood back as all our industries were exported to third world countries and not much as changed under this government, were we out on the streets when the banking fiasco became known? Naaaaaa, come the election and the same few will bother to vote, the others will sit back and proudly say I didn’t vote because of various reasons, when what they really mean is they are too gutless to stand up and be counted, they don’t want to be blamed when a bad government gets in office.

I was born in 1942, left school in 57 and started work as a trainee upholsterer, 9 months later I got a job in a garage, after 2 years I got a job in the electroplating trade, 26 years later was made redundant during Maggie’s reign.

Take the youngsters of today and put them back in the 60’s or 70’s and they would have probably have followed a similar work pattern and they would probably have gone to pubs and clubs and got bladderd like we did, stop blaming the youngsters for the sins of our generation, the reason these youngsters don’t take work as seriously as we did is probably because they don’t see working on a checkout or delivering flyers or any of the other mundane cheap labour occupations as anything other than a fill in job till they get sacked and have to move on to the next soul destroying job.

This young lad was in a unique position his family were in business, he had seen the work ethic around him all his life, there was every chance he was going to be successful in life just as are many young Asians, their whole lives are influenced by their parents own success, they know business tactics, now apply that same environment to all the other youngsters in the UK, yes there are going to be a number of useless no hopers who just want to live at the expense of the taxpayer, but there will also be thousands of other youngsters who will jump at the chance of being an apprentice engineer, a dress designer, a jeweller, an accountant etc.

Youngsters today are the way they are because the society we allowed to develop has made them that way, a corrupt government, a corrupt society will breed children will low esteem and low moral values.
