Something that has really ground my gears this month was the death of Bessie the cow.
If you hadn’t heard, the cow was shot dead in a field in North Tyneside after escaping. Dozens of police cars attended as well as seven armed police and a helicopter.
It is not just the police forces’ incredulous failure dealing with the situation that makes my ears steam, but it is the public reaction.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Thousands were expected to attend the candle lit vigil (yes you read that right) being held in remembrance for the cow, which has since been named Bessie.

The public have acted with outrage and disgust at the premature death of this animal claiming it is not everyday that a cow is pointlessly shot dead in a field. These are probably the same people who are lobbying to stop the badger cull.

What crazy world do we live in when a single TB free bovine is getting a bigger public response than the masses slaughtered every year as a result of Tb?
