I spent six months there as a temp secretary, then came back two months later to work in the word processing department. I am a complete anomaly, having pretty much the education of the lawyers (though I'm from a more middle-class background) but, seemingly, so little ambition I'm happy to do a school leaver's job. So they don't know what to make of me.

You've made statements like this before(overeducated/underachieving), and i'm not trying to be harsh when I say this, but do you ever stop to think that you might not be as smart/educated as you think you are. Blaming a lack of ambition seems like a very easy out for somebody who has not achieved very much.

Oh yes, of course, absolutely. I did get a BA, MA and completed two years of a PhD at one of the best English departments in the country, but I've failed to do anything with it, and I'm not much of an original thinker.

Perhaps a link to Anacord's classic OOT thread would be in order?
