When I went though secondary school, it was not uncommon for
pupils on the science/maths side of the distribution to have
dropped any subject that required them to write essays; just
as the other "humanities" group had dropped science and
maths subjects as soon as possible; naturally, this greatly
exacerbated the weaknesses of both groups.

But at some point you have top specialise in your area of interest
I doubt many rocket scientists are experts in shakespeare.
One of our academics wants the department to employ a super-technician
one that knows everything about electronics and computer science, to help out in all areas
of teaching and research, she's been wanting such a person for a few years now.
Be interesting to see the job description with a starting salery of around £25K
and who applies.
An endless supply of bull****ters and hopeless hopefuls, people who
don't have the right to seek work in the UK , and those
with no experience at all and just want to get their first job.
