I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by.

You work at ASDA don't you?(If i'm remembering previous posts correctly) I got rejected by them last week and I can't believe it.
I was a shift manager at McDonald's for 2 and a half years, and now i'm not fit for shelf stacking. There's something not quite right there me thinks.
In your sad machines you'll forever stay, desperate and displeased, with whoever you are.

working at a motorway services i was earning £5.61/hour when i was 17....
errr, now working at principles for £3.70/hour...
but the work's so much easier it's "almost" worth it.
Screw their values!
I`m working at Tesco now, we got 1 billion profits so nah nah nah nah nah.
I get £3.55 an hour now, but I think that goes up to £4 sumthing when I hit 18. I`ll be full time soon cos College are gonna chuck me out <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">
The pay is quite sucky at Tesco but it is surprisingly quote a good place to work.

However, things are cheaper in the US in general, so it's understandable that our minimum wage would be lower than yours (just not by as much as it is)
An eye for an eye makes the world blind.
I don't think there is a minimum wage for under 18 year olds. I'll be on £4.12 per hour at my new job + £10 responsibility allowance. I'm 18 so thats ok.
I was on £2.80 when I was 16 and £3.25 when I was 17. My mate was on £2.20 when he was 16.

and youre right, there isnt a min wage for under 18s. im sure i already said that somewhere.. ah well, maybe that was the other post. bigbabe80's already implied there isnt tho.

Yeah and whats wrong with that?
A responsibility allowance is when I'm doing a job with responsibility believe it or not...so I get an extra £10 a week for it. Which isn't bad cause that amounts to over 2 hours pay.

you dont have to be so defensive all the time. i was only asking, and i didnt know what a responsibility allowance was. and now i do <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">
