This figures and what I have been saying about the minimum and the maximums,
Your 10,000 works out a a gross of 14,600 before tax, which means you are on a minimum wage for a 40 hour week
if you are only part time its different, whatever the case your are working for nothing, which fits my bill, if one
makes someone work for nothing and giving someone something for nothing doen't work,
Our national health system should be our single biggest most important factor, if we keep people out of work because
of savings and illness, we areall loosing, no one is paying tax while they are out of the system,
I can understand why nurses once qualified move to sunnier climbs, I don't look upon this as the staff letting us down when
they have got what they want, I look upon it as the system already failing them before they are actually qualified,
All this rambling ain't getting anything done, must get to work myself, don't be naughty
That was my ex's standard take home pay for working shifts around the clock too because guess what... they stopped the bonus for night shifts because they needed to cut back on money.
Far be it for them to make a few pen pushers redundant no, it was a much better idea to take money out of the wages of nurses who quite frankly should be on a hundred times as much as they are for all the crap they have to put up with.
I could tell you some scare stories about how understaffed and overworked they are but I would never stop!
My ex OH worked in a stroke rehabilitation ward where for the first few years they had inadequate lifting gear for the patients and as such he can probably look forward to retiring through back injury in a few years time but HEY they have 5 new pen pushers to tell them how to save more money though in that time so that's OK!
My Dad was a Policeman for 30 years and they don't get paid enough to be spat at, stabbed and almost beaten to death (as my dad was when he was helping out at a Girl guide disco and some youths recognised him as a copper) either but the fact these people are putting their lives on the line is obviously nothing or worth compared with the <insert rude word here> sat on their fat overpaid asses in Parliament eh?
*VERY angry*
Myself and my OH are currently fighting an appeal for Incapacity allowance after it was stopped because a doctor who works for the government said he was fit for work. The fact he almost died not too long after with respiritory failure kind of put pay to her fraudulent answers but we have lived for the past year on just over £4000.00 and still had to pay our bills like everyone else and we managed to keep a car on the road too because I am disabled and cannot walk very far.
I haven't been able to afford to go and visit my parents who I miss greatly because petrol prices have been through the roof and I have struggled to buy things for my business (of which I make no money at the moment) and to think these... 'people' have been dipping into public money while telling us we are scum for trying to get benefits when we are fit for work (HA)... I am outraged and disgusted!
