you think the pay is good? you think it's worth the headache? I don't know, maybe I might convert to islam, change my name, put it in the resume and apply for a job at MI7

"LONDON (Reuters) - The success of the James Bond movies has given the British Secret Intelligence Service a recruitment headache -- too many cranks want to join MI6.

As well as dismissing the notion that spying was a never-ending life of fast cars, fast women and shaken not stirred Martini cocktails, "Mark" was keen to demolish another myth surrounding MI6.
"We don't have a licence to kill -- we don't carry Berettas -- that's simply not true.""
