Job of the day for us support monkeys

[gingerjedi]

£360 a week for an 8hr day...

£18,000 a year....

£250 take home (approx)

They gotta be joking

What's the alternative? There is literally feck all out there, Jobserve is still barren and I haven't had an agent call me in over a month, I'm SC cleared with 6 years experience.

I went from £28 to £12.50ph just as a stop gap, still waiting...

Well, I said I would never go below £150 a day - broke that rule (just) with current gig. Looks I might need to re-define the rule for the next one.

That's From other post's you sound like you're in a simliar field to me, SC'd and at a guess from M5 and MOD, you're only just down the hill from my gig. We had to take a 10% hit back in the New Year, but nothing like that. Still not great, espcially with the wife quitting work to look after the littleun for this year.

Only £16700 if you allow for bank hols and 4 weeks off at some point!

At that rate you cannot afford holidays, especially not 4 weeks worth

I have a baby too with the exact same scenario so another £30k taken from the family pot.

We're struggling by on about 40% of our previous family income with an extra mouth to feed indeed.

I guess you're in the big HP building then?
