Yep, me too, it might be crap but it's the first time I've been Elite
I am technological middle class or something like that.
I deal with steel and concrete on a day to day basis and come from a working class background so figure that out!
Apparently I'm traditional working class.
Because nothing says "traditional working class" like "computer programmer/jazz pianist".
"According to the Great British Class Survey results, lots of people in this group:
Own their own home
Are older
Tend to mix socially with people similar to themselves"
I don't own my own home.
I'm 22.
I tend to avoid anyone and everyone.
I don't think this is particularly accurate...

Well, even though I'm Elite I'd still be willing to talk to you, as long as you do some forelock tugging.

I can't see the phrase "forelock tugging" without thinking it's a euphemism...

LOL, oh no, no way, no no no, I'm not going to go there, I'll leave that for someone else... yes, you know who you are!
Result: the class group you most closely match is:
Precariat
This is the poorest and most deprived class group. According to the Great British Class Survey results, lots of people in this group:
Tend to mix socially with people like themselves
Come from a working class background
Rent their home - over 80%
Which is amusing. I do come from a working class background though, well 80s dole queue parents background. What screws me is my income which is decent in Italy but doesn't convert well into pounds. Teacher though, I suppose I am precarious...

Class man, you got sheer class.
You too? my on-suit bathroom bath cleaner wants a pay rise but the family bathroom bath cleaner is ok. but you know what they're like, once you pay one 1/10 of a pittance more then they all want it, upstairs, then downstairs then all the bloody gardeners...... it just goes on.

Didn't I just see you two in the 'I'm Scottish and proud of it' thread?
This has even reached Holland. One of my collegues came into work this morning with a newspaper article about it. He started asking me what I called the evening meal. Tea, Diner, Supper? When I said that it depended on the time of day (tea being at 17:00, Diner 18:00, Supper - even later), he couldn't follow it any more
No Frank, you're there to answer our questions about drugs.
I took the test but failed to make it to Precariat. But I do know the sort of question that lawyers, teachers and off-duty police ask me. It's "Would you like to buy some drugs?"
Well I suppose that's marginally better than "have you got any drugs to sell"..
