Madam, – I have been a public servant for almost 20 years, but two years ago I wished I was working in the banking sector. Five years ago, I wished I was an auctioneer. Seven years ago, I wished I had qualified with a building trade. Twelve years ago I wished was employed in the computer software industry. Fifteen years ago, I wished I was an airline pilot. Eighteen years ago, I was sorry I had not sought employment in the hospitality industry.
Twenty years ago, when I had to make my career choice, I felt that job security was more important than a lucrative but risky profession so I applied for a job in the public service. – Yours, etc,
