Richard Grey, 21, lived at home while he took a second-class honours biochemistry degree at the University of Edinburgh, but was unable to find work in his chosen field near home. He did not want to move away from family and friends and so he took a £100-a-week job as a shelf stacker in an Edinburgh supermarket nine months ago. "A supermarket is not my first choice but it is the only place I have been able to get a job here," Mr Grey said. "I am prepared to wait for a chemistry-based job to come up here."

He has been offered degree-related jobs in the south of Eng­land, and a £20,000 research post in Manchester. "All my memo­ries are tied up with Edinburgh," he said. "I feel my future lies here too. Money and a prestigious title do not matter to me. Why should I move?"
