Six-fingered man who types at 100 words a minute wants secretary job in UK

Fastest finger first: Vijay Singh is coming to the UK to work as a typist

A man with six fingers on each hand is heading to the UK next month as a typist.
Vijay Singh can rattle out more than 100 words a minute, but for the past year he has been turned down for more than 50 jobs in India.
The 48-year-old honed his skills on a basic typewriter as a child before progressing to a computer keyboard.
He has qualified for a student visa which will allow him to go to secretarial college in London and work up to 20 hours a week.

But Mr Singh's all work "perfectly", making him a whizz at typing.
Mr Singh, who also has 12 toes, said: “I think in the UK, I’ll be appreciated for what I can do.”
Although being born with six digits on each hand and foot is considered a ‘blessing’ in some parts of India, Mr Singh said he didn’t feel so lucky.
He said: “If I was lucky I would have a job in India by now, but I’m looking forward to coming to London to study and get a part-time job in an office.”
The fastest ever typing speed was set by Stella Pajunas, of Chicago, USA, in 1946 using an IBM electric typewriter - still a world record.
Mr Singh also said he believed sexist bosses in India only wanted women as secretaries, adding: “They want a pretty woman, not some guy with 12 fingers.
“I can type at more than 100 words-per-minute, so really am the best person for the job.”
