Anything that I say comes with the same health warning as in Update: 'Opinions expressed are not necessarily those of CILIP'. What I have said is a personal opinion only - I categorically do not represent the views of CILIP. Nor am I unsympathetic.
However, there is a glaringly obvious fact that people seem to be missing: that there are some wonderful opportunities within information work! They are not always described as information jobs, however.
This is my last comment on the subject.
