Hello from The Commissioner

Hi everyone,

As you may or may not know already, this is a blog aiming to dispell the stereotype that surrounds us students. Believe it or not, some of us are over the age of 21. Some of us even families - partners, kids, maybe even a cat or a dog. Neither of those things apply to me. What I do have, however, is seen as something of a rarity for students - a job. More specifically, a job at one of the UK's favourite supermarkets, stacking shelves, working on the tills and generally having a miserable time trying to stop myself going into debt.

This blog is, in a way, a means by which I can get all things work-related off my chest, and I invite you all to do the same. I know I'm not alone in having to work a shit job to get by, and it would be great if all those of you who can relate to what I'm talking about, student or otherwise, could get in touch. I hope, one way or another, you'll all be able to take something from what I'm writing and, if you don't already, learn about the realities of student life.
