Education

[Mortblanc]

Why does the law state that education must be provided until age 18 of they will allow one to leave school at age 15?

Believe me BP, as an employer as well as an employee, I can assure you that qualifications/certifications matter. That is especially true when there is a testing standard at the end of a significant training period.

People lie. They lie about their experiences, their abilities and their accomplishments. Employers also lie about their workers, since it is much easier to hire a worthless POS than to fire one. If you write the bum a glowing letter of recommendation he might move on and be someone else's problem. Easier and cheaper to do that than to pay endless benefits and severance.
