You can tell this is an ancient meme because it prices college at 4 years at $9,000 per year instead of 5 years at $30,000 per year ๐Ÿ˜†

UK businesses abuse the apprenticeship system for profit.

Like fucking Subway were taking on apprentices. Because making a sandwich clearly takes years of training, rather than about a day. Nothing to do with being able to pay them half the minimum wage, oh no, can't be that.

But then "not in my job description" is something I stopped hearing when I left school. In the real world, your job is what your boss tells you to do (within reason), otherwise you don't have a job any more.
