Thanks for that weenie. Wow £9.64 per hour is a fortune, how times change. When I first started work aged 15, I got paid £125 per YEAR i.e. £2.50 per week 9-5 Mon-Fri + 9-12 Sat morning. Didn't get paid for the two weeks the firm closed in July. Gave my Mum £2 and had 50p to spend, off which I had to pay my bus fare to work 12 1/2p per week, so 35p left for stockings and entry to the Palais de Dance. Happy days!


Hope they get the job, keep us posted.
