As WTF Said there are discounts on purchases and would add up to a decent package. In fact would probably make them higher rate tax payers....well on part of their income anyway. Maybe it's the tax system that needs looking at. 🙄 My 16 year old daughter is earning more than that in her summer job!! Do people really think that a more employer paying adults £12 an hour is ok? Wow. I suppose as long as people can buy cheap beans 🤷♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Poppins Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Again, some context. Boots are paying £12.02 an hour for this role. The only Tesco vacancies I can see are advertising £15p/h minimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Boots is made for walkin, cos that's what staff will do, one of these days they'll go elsewhere, and say to Boots "f**k you". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will probably get more applicants than Tesco as it will be considered as a nicer job. The pay quoted isn't much higher than what junior bank employess used to make . Was ( and I assume still is ) close to minimum wage . In spite of that there were more applicants than jobs . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bored housewives with the mortgage and bills already covered maybe...but no one can survive on that on the island if its your only income and you have rent and bills to pay. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with the junior bank employees.. But many apply as you get to wear a suit 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred the shred Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Before the police got their well deserved pay rise I don’t think they were getting a lot more than that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
