I live in Lincoln, but have picked up 6 months work in Newport, S.Wales.
Couldn't face B&B, so have taken a room in a shared house, I'm only there 4 nights a week.
Just as well it pays well

I'm employed but only get paid per job which works out reasonable,well has done the last few years but as the economy has worsened sines 2008 I'm finding my self finishing early most days and struggling to get 5 days a week work so my pay is obviously reflected in this and I'm often having days where i only earn £60, depressing relay as i was earning more money in 2001-2002 when i finished college as a level 3 nvq painter/vehicle body repairer than i currently do now  . the options for me are ........ 1) grin and bear it and probably struggle for a long time 2)set up on my own at a great risk but a better potential but no chance of getting a mortgage for a long time. i wasted 5 years at college,i feel sorry for those who invested even more time at university's as the chance of earning decent money these days is very slim alot of these eastern europeans seem nice enough guys and there only here as there economys are worse than ours but i do feel this country is getting dragged down and where does it leave us that cant afford to live on £40 a day ?  |
