That is just insane. Assuming you have done a comparison, how much was it elsewhere?

Just a quick follow up question on this. Would he not need to also get the 'bits of paper' in order to legally conduct electrical work?

If it helps, I know two radiographers and they are blood miserable (I don't think that has anything to do with the job though).

It annoys me. They seem to put plenty of money into training programs. But they don't work for the majority of the population. They mostly only work for the unemployed, many of which aren't interested in working anyway....or like a couple of my friends who are unemployed are desperate for a...
