Inferiority complex slowly diminishing

In Brussels it helps if you have no experience of the marketplace before applying for your first job. Preferential qualifications are up to ten years in various educational establishments, ideally in various European languages, and terrible dress-sense.

It is thus with great pride that I announce that my final university results have come through and I will be awarded “the BSc Politics and International Relations degree from LSE with the classification: Second Class Honours (Upper Division).” I am the best-dressed graduate in town.

Soon I’ll be asking you to call me Dr. Kim Bah Lee.
