[QUOTE="Wurzeetoo, post: 7684208, member: 78354"] There was a time not long ago I was impressed if someone was on £9 an hour. After 2 years of my current job i dream of handing in my notice but I cannot see a way of starting a family and taking less than my £13.50 an hour at the moment. As much as I would love to make a career in agriculture, I’m struggling to find an opportunity. There’s chicken shed washing for £11 but while I’m financially stable it would be stupid of me to apply. Currently enquiring over doing my class 2 and cpc. No doubt there’s high wages in places but professional driving is looking more £9 - £12 at the moment. I’m often taken with [USER=6448]@7610 super q[/USER] posts, it really feels that commodities will be priced far higher than is in reach. My employer is a fine example. The current minimum wage increase was hailed as a success by unions, employers just counteracted this increase by slashing staffing hours by 50 percent. There’s very few winners if wages/takings cant keep up with inflation [/QUOTE]
