Sometimes I look at what I've done with my life and despair. I went to Oxford University and yet I've managed to steer myself into a position where I alphabetise for a living. It's so humiliating.
You can always give the OU a try - that's quite a nice way back into accademic work with the added bonus of no snotty-nosed 18 year olds and no having to give up full-time employment.
