Therein lies the answer. A DXO's job is for someone with middling ambition who wants to walk out of the door at 5.30 sharp every day.
Just think, if your friend wasn't engaged to a guy who's "doing super well", I'd doubt she would settle for DXO.
There are government/civil service positions that offer greater challenge and prospects for developing transferable skills, and with hours just marginally longer than a DXO position.
I agree somewhat with the poster above that it seems a bit of a waste to study for 16 years to do something so insipid, esp. if you went to a local uni and went through the whole fairly competitve grind of local education.
