My missus works in the water industry......No graduate (at her company) starts on less than £30k a year

 

This is the real problem, my mrs stays home a make a home for me and our 4 children, it's all these women going out to work that has driven down wages, until most households need two wages.

my missus works in a bank , she started there on 15.5 k a year , four years later she earns 27k and has the responsibility of investing 1000's of other peoples money for them , often its the case that she is investing a retired persons life savings or the proceeds of a loved ones estate etc if she were to go to her employer and ask for more money because she does not feel she is earning enough for the job she does her employer would explain that she is on a pay grade that fits her level of qualification and skill and that there is a yearly pay review ! in other words if she does not like it move on !

 

so what is it about this industry that makes us feel that we are all worth so much because of what we do ??? if the industry is not bringing your boss enough money to enable him to pay you a wage that will suit your ideal lifestyle then find another industry !

 

Did ya not read this thread ? I run my own business!!! (and employ subbys)

 

Maybe a different business than yours. But it's still business.

 

All i'm trying to say is pay what you would want to be paid if you were employed, like i do.

 

Profit is one thing.

 

Looking after them who look after you is another.
