Need your opinions, I have a keen interest in computing and have already started doing a degree through the Open University, But now I’m starting to question if should I continue.

I’m a workshop joiner at the min, I hate the job but It pays the bills, when I started of as an apprentice there was good money in it, but now thank to Poles etc theres nothing in it, I’m on min wage.

I started retraining during a spell of unemployments as it was free with the Open Uni, I have got 60 points from 1 year, but now i’ve heard everyone has a degree in computing and theres not enough jobs to go around. So i’m really unsure what to do, to continue or not.

Either way I can not survive on min wage, I have a family to keep but thats all thats on offer in my trade as I have made a few enquires
