If you look on the face of it £500 for a days work, what some people don't even see in a week does seem like a lot but how are the TV cameras going to capture to 10 years of experience you put in to get to that point.

Exactly - "Invoice: £1 for fixing the boiler by hitting it with a hammer, £499 for knowing where to hit it."

ARE YOU WORTH YOUR WAGE?
We are looking for talented professionals who are absolutely worth their wage to appear in a new series for Channel 4 about working life and pay in Britain.
The purpose of the series is simple. We will follow a small group of talented individuals with contrasting jobs and salaries as they spend time experiencing and comparing each other’s working lives. We are particularly keen to find successful individuals willing to demonstrate the hard work, responsibility, working hours and pressure that comes with being a high-earner.
This series goes beyond tabloid stereotypes and instead of criticising high earners - instead looks at why different jobs are worth their wage. We want to challenge preconceptions about certain professions and break the taboo about revealing how much we earn.
Are you stereotyped based on your job? Would you like the chance to set the record straight about your profession and show how you are worth every penny?
This programme is going to be full of just like the apprentice.
People who think they are better then others just because they earn what they think is a high wage. Not for me thanks. I'll sit in the corner developing for 8 hrs and then collect my £500 and go home.
The general public will be amazed by our knowledge of Galdiators, bleeding radiators and chutney spoons and will obviously realise we are indeed worth every penny.
