hmmm, yeah, the online thingy told me not to bother applying because I wasn'tthe type of person that they are looking for. Load of shit if you ask me. I mean how can they tell?
Masters in what? I just got into LSE in IR but it's big money too.

bloody well done indeed - however the civil service isnt so bloated anymore, everyone's been laid off, now they're all consultants...
uber - its not the miliatary, she wants to be in the diplomatic service (she's into international relations) - i'm hoping she'll become an ambassador, then we can have "receptions"

my flatmate's brother-in-law is in the diplomatic corps and has just moved to nyc. they've had a hell of a time getting anyone to let them a flat because apparently diplomats will just take off without paying and there's nothing the landlords can do about it.
they had to pay a year's rent up front!
congrats, lucy. well done.

Is this the new Bond casting?

I'd better start saving.
A strange thing, diplomatic immunity, Why do they do it?
- paraselene0
you'd think they'd have to apply some sort of discretionary statutes to it or something.
along the lines of,
"okay, you're a diplomat so you can't be held for felony charges and must be extradited to your country of origin or tried by an international war tribunal or something, but, mate, you do have to pay the water bill. honestly."

I applied for this fast stream stuff once... I think the online test result said I had a personality disorder or something. You can't win 'em all!
Anyways, I quite fancy diplomatic service too and just got a place on the Masters program at Columbia in NY. Can anyone lend me £35k? I didn't plan my finances properly (at all)...
