@tcann theres really nothing to tell..i applied for DM because at my current job I am an Asst manager and I graduated from law school in 2002. the thing is i earn only 40k at my current job with almost nil allowances and every few months we are threatened with closure, and very few career prospects. I really need a better paying job to support the family was advised to accept the MA and complain for an upgrade once in the system..
