i get £15 for 6 hours which works out at £2.50 an hour, sometimes i get tips.
i was just wondering how much you lot got paid for your first job i.e. when you were about 15
i know its crap money at my place but i kinda like it there so im not complaining (most of the time)

i now get about 12/13 an hours so i've moved up in the world
I really was doing it more for the experience than the money (at the beginning at least!), and without that experience, I wouldn't have got my new job, so maybe it was worth it...
Now I get £5.70 and I work in a GPs surgery, but I only work 11.5 hours a week. Beats working more hours for less pay, works out the same at the end of the month!
now I get £6 an hour
then i worked at boots and got £3.10 and thought it was the best thing ever.....
at the moment i'm doing some market research work for £6 an hour..
I'm contracted to do 17 hours a week, at £3.70 an hour, and time and a half on Sundays. That works out at £72.15 a week.
And I get a pay rise after 13 weeks, when I'm fully trained
Edited to say: That averages at about £4.24 an hour.
I was 14 though so its excusable!
Although at the age of 17 i only get £4.19 Crap fucking wages!
Im starting my new job today at WHSmiths. £4.58 and hour going up to £4.78 an hour after 3 months. Im just working sundays, but theres no extra sunday pay, ah well.
I now earn around £9 per hour on a 35 hour week.
But I've quit that now and I'm lining up a job in Iceland where it's £4.20 an hour so I'm a lot happier because I'm still young and niave about wages
Mines worse than that. I get £15 for 9 hours, plus tips, so i usually come home with about £20. Its shit money, but i really like the job and people there
Mind you, that was in 1986!
thats what i'd be getting if i worked on saturdays, it silly, you get the same money for 3 hours less work:rolleyes:
my first job was when i was about 14
I worked at the little chef for £1.34ph, poxy huh!
I got f*%"all money for loads of hours work...............
:crying:
.........and i thought i was rolling in it!! :crying: :crying:
Shit, that's bad! I got £2.70 an hour working in a supermarket when I was 17.
