It’s outrageous. A 6 hour day and a 8 month year.

800 notes into the paw for it.

There was lads taking home 800 a week 20 years ago and their mortage repayments were probably half of what a first time buyer would be expected to pay nowadays

This thread has unsurprisingly taken a classic TFK turn to the nasty. Very nasty.

Lot of lads on here seem very time affluent.

When you take in the breaks its probably a 4 hour day, then you’ve the midterms and easter holidays.

Some gig in fairness for 800 notes a week while off in a camper van down over in France for a month too in July.

Some lads don’t know how lucky they are.

I’d pick up our lass (who is junior infants) from the afterschool behind her primary school. I’d go past the room some evenings at 5 and her teacher is still in there. Class ends at 1:40. That doesn’t mean a teacher’s day is done.

It doesn’t mean she’s working either.

True. She might be escaping home!

But then you’ve lads working in IT or accountancy that spend a significant amount of their working days on forums arguing with strangers about relatively inane subject matters. Oh…

Its basically babysitting until the kids turn into teenagers. But in fairness he does take all their problems home with him…which must also be nerve-wracking

I’m taking home a bit (not a whole lot) more than that per week, but I’ve a big mortgage that is not far off two weeks wages. On top of that, I’m probably bringing home 70-75% of the family income so we’re certainly not overly comfortable. It’s all relative.

I get a nice big bump in April alright. I’m happy enough in the job, and it is very handy when it comes to things like managing school holidays etc.

Would you think of starting up as a dog groomer mate? I dropped 65 e for one today and they can’t be got for love or money round here. You could do a deal with the missus if ladies drop their dogs into you when they go for their waxes.
