Then buy "Do What? The Civil Service" by Terry Edge (ISBN 1-903019-74-5):- very readable and excellent value at only £4.99. A first class introduction to a huge range of jobs around the UK. As Terry says:-
There are 460,000 people in the UK you may never have heard of. Yet without their work the country would grind to a halt. Thousands of civil servants help collect taxes, give out benefit monies and inspect our buildings. But they are also weather forecasters, vets, secret agents, air crash investigators, forest rangers ... and some even make money - literally - for the Royal Mint.
