Working Man's Not Dead

I like Johann Hari's blog. I read his entry on work experience and it was quite harsh. It is probably true that in some cases work experience is quite exploitative and involves a lot of tea making and grovelling, maybe in journalism?! Having recently done a bit myself I was surprised that I wasn't the one doing the tea making and I was thoroughly engaged shadowing some really great people and they really made it a pleasure. Am I the exception?!
Please, if you don't read another article this week look at this well written piece in the New Statesman, it is stunning:
