I'm at work experience!

During this week and all of the next one, I am at work experience at a Stockbroker's in Blackburn. It is quite fun but there are some boring bits so I come and post on here!

Great. What do you have to do there then?

Ok here's a rundown of what I do/have done so far:

1) Get in at 8:30 and write up share reports and prices for the Telegraph

2) I read the FT for 45 minutes

3) I then get assigned a task; first day it was filing, then yesterday I did ISA customer details and today I bought and sold stock

4) Then at 4:25 I send out the post and Direct Exchange letters

Thrilling stuff!

I'll take your word for that!!

Today I've started a report on a client's investment portfolio but the majority of the bugger's (yes I can use that word - read the Daily Mail today!) companies have changed their names about 5 times so I've got to trawl through the CGT Service book and if that doesn't work I just leave them alone!

I would never, ever, read the Daily Mail on this or any day!

It's a reputable paper - not like some others I could mention

The Telegraph, for example!!
