Would you say? Or if you open what do you or your oh take home each month/annually?

My hourly rate is £8.81 but I'm only part time so I take home roughly £750 after tax, ni and pension so that's bout 10k a yr but I only work 22hrs a wk

teachers, social workers and those type of peeps normally earn around £20,00 to 25,000 first few years, then of course it goes up

admin at work earn around £15,000 to £18,000

unqualified staff earn £18,000 to £20,000

but i dont know about average, not a clue what docs earn or police etc

errm i work 17.5 hrs a week, my last monthly wage was £599....so i have no idea but last time i checked im sure it was about £7.50 an hour x

I always thought 25k was about average, though I think for London/the south its prob about 30k. If you work in shop/nursery nurse etc you may only get about 14k.... but then Drs can be on 100k so there is a huge scale and averages dont always mean its what most people earn. Eg 4 people could earn 10k a year, and one could earn 50k a year and if you worked out their average salary it would be 20k a year - which is double what most of them earn.

I think in NI averages are lower, but then so are house prices etc.

I'm 23k for 40 hours a week, but work being work and because I work at home two days a week I only get 18k if i got back in 5 days a week i'll get 23k. Not impressed lol.

so at the moment i get £8.65

full 5 days i'd get £11.05

i think like snoopy say about NI , north scotland the average is lower but the house prices /rent / cost of living is soooo much cheaper ,

do you all pay for water ?

We dont pay for water here, and ave rent prices for a 3 bed is £500 a month. You could buy a 3 bed semi for £125k in my town, and prob for £100k if you moved further out to the country. (even at that the 'country' is only ever about 30 min from a big town. It only takes about 2-3 hrs to drive from one end of NI to the other!)

I think it depends on the sector and the area, I was on 18k when doing admin full time! My oh is an area manager and gets around 35-40k depending on bonus. But he's changing jobs this week so no idea what he'll be on then!

I earn about £16,500 working part time 20hrs ish a week x

we dont pay for water here ,,, you can rent a 3 bed from the council/ housing for under 300
an 3 bed semi here is about 100k

it amazes me that you can buy a property here that is 3 times the price down south

Ok so we pay for water it's about £25 per month ish. And my two bed house was worth £185k when I brought it! I may have to move up north a bit!

we pay water here and sewage. i dont know how much it is though as OH pays for it.

FFS you lot get way more than I do, on a crappy 6.50 an hour for running my arse off for people lol xx

I earn £13.08 per hour and work 15 hours a week. Its a good salary and very good hours, which is why I am (reluctantly) going back now.

Matt earns 19K a yr for 35hrs a week (altho he works a hell of a lot more).

When I was working I was on 20k + bonus's, I worked 4 on 4 off 12 hour shifts. Paul works 42 hours mon-fri and is on 35k

xx
