Haha - this came on a day too early. It's TCLA's birthday (7 years old!) tomorrow :) Edit: I might change it to confetti. Can you heart this if you prefer a heart and thumbs up if you prefer confetti?- Jaysen

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25
I appreciate the suggestion. This is something we'd never do: for the seven years I've been running TCLA, the community has been amazing. We always get a couple of people every year who are difficult, but this is the nature of a forum of this size. I think anonymity is really important in an...- Jaysen

Sorry about this. They are upset that they have been warned about their behaviour in the forum (and sending very hostile messages to our moderator) and they're taking it out on community members. They have now been banned.- Jaysen

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25
I don't agree with this. I'm not sure why you're telling someone they need to apply somewhere else and move laterally nor why your tone is so hostile. @Tintin06, this is a really good number of applications and very helpful to see your progress. Plenty of people get training contracts without...- Jaysen
