Had a letter come round today regarding our payrise.
If you earn £7.59p or less an hour you're getting a 2.5% raise, if you earn more then your not.
Guess where i come into the equation, yup above £7.59p so no raise for me  
So we have increased VED, fuel increases, council tax increases, gas, electric, the list goes on.
F%$&^ng winds me up big time.
If i see a brand new Bentley parked in his spot i'm gona grab a forklift & stick it on the roof.
The useless tosser had his stupid face in the local paper the other week, because of all the money he's got & he's on the FT rich list too.
He's one of the greediest people i've ever known, thinks nothing of buying a company for what he wants & then pulling the plug & putting people out of work.
Rant over, but i'm still

I think most of us mere mortals are in the same boat this year --- naff all or very little in the way of payrise and enormous increases in the outgoings.
I really thin we have a 90's style crunch on the way -- hope I am wrong.  Take heart tho -- I usually am wrong !!!!

i`ve gotta talk to my hdp manager next week about my proposed pay rise..they are taking our sunday premium off us and replacing it with a 50p an hour pay rise i worked it out the other day i`m gonna be £150 quid a year better off??? plus we lose our day in lieu for working bankholidays and they fall into the same rate of pay as a normal working day....no more double time and overtime will only be paid once you go past 90 hours worked over 2 weeks i.e. 45 hour working week...and if i refuse to sign said new contract after 3 meetings my contract might be terminated....

Ask you bosses why - if they can afford big expensive cars they can afford cost of living pay rises.

Great way of encouraging job disloyalty
