Default what do these ppl earn?

wass speaking with a 21yr old lad who works ina gym.. he said he was earning only £9.5k a year b4 tax!!

got me thinking of other jobs that you don't really think of its pay, but when you do you wounder how ppl live off it.

so anyone know what these ppl below earn a year before tax.

1. Delivery Van driver
2. PR 'Black Thunder' Radio Station reps (those that give out the stickers etc, driving round in ML320's etc etc)
3. unskilled labourer
4. TeleSales 'cold' caller
5. Shopping Centre 'security' guards

if anyone things of anymore add to the list.

Think hairdressers only ever get minimum wage and "experience"

You would get more working in Mcdonalds.

Our starting rate is £53 per day for unskilled labour (£13,700 p.a.). Overtime is time and a half so if a person is prepared to put in the hours they can easily take home £16 - £17k. It's not a lot of money but it's possible to live off it if you are careful and not saddled with debts.

I will add that care workers DESERVE more than we need to pay top Engineers ... but, then again, Engineers DESERVE more than footballers!!

Sadly, deserve has NOTHING to do with earning power!

I was interviewing today for a receptionist at £11,400 starting pay

Electricians and Plumbers are a special case as they are a high demand service with oportunities for "foreigners". Government estimates put their "average earnings" at £80K. Flame suit on

well they aren't going to be ten a penny, are they? perhaps you could get in touch with the PR people over at al-qaeda and see how their product development is getting along.

all of these - about a fiver an hour give or take a few pence - the really frightening thing is that I can go and see a couple who earn 8k a year each, are perfectly happy and have their finances in order, and then an hour later see a couple who earn 80k a year each, are in debt to the eyeballs and pay me large sums of money to tell them "Start spending less than you earn"

Pete - your care workers deserve more than all current earnings of Man U, Chelsea and Real Madrid put together. A sainthood for wiping your **** and listening to your drivel for even 1 8 hour shift would not be out of order

are we talking about Bum Wiping care workers?
*Flame suite on* but when you 'see' what type of ppl do care working they all seem they carn't put a proper sentence together and wear a load of H Samuel gold, not the sharpest knife in the draw. IMO

Nursey Nurses are on anout £9k a year if that... but lets face it, if you have 4 A Levels a Degree etc your not going to go into Baby Sitting and Bum wiping or house cleaning!

bit of a major generalisation there mate. my ex was a bum cleaner for years. it is deffo a vocation. she did her nurse training, wiped a load of ar$es for a few years, then went on to be a counsellor for a cancer charity, and now she lectures in the top university in Belfast. has just completed her masters and will start her doctorate next year. not all "bum wipers" are mindless fcukwits.

cheers

My wife is a "Nursey Nurse" and is on about 25k a year . If you ever need to be helped by one, please be sure to tell them what you think if them before you ask for their help......

Courier Van drivers in London, I'm paying around £300 pw PAYE - anyone want a job?

Self-employed couriers in London (m/bikes) around £500 pw and cycle messengers £350

However, we're trying to get the biker/cycle rates up so as to attract the best. See our ad in MCN.

Nope sure ain't, having done the counselling and psychology, if you walk into the room you suddenly become transparent to her. sum you up in a heartbeat. scary or what, she just seems to have that knack.
