do i quit or not?

How much do you spend on fuel driving there every week?

3 hours per week which is not even £15?

Is it even worth getting out your bed for that?

Try DIY stores, I did stock replenishment 3 nights a week, 4 hours per night n sometimes did 4 nights and some more hours, had £60-£70 most weeks on top of my other job and no weekend work.

If you want to avoid 'unsocialable' hours then avoid public service stuff.

cheers Liam, will look into it, it's 2 - 3 miles from me so not too bad, pretty un sociable hours at 6-9 hours, this friday they gave me a 10-4 though which isn't too bad.

I'm sure when he's qualified he'll be up in the £20p/h band. Not that it's that good. You just pay more tax and NI

 

[ChrisUK]

Yeah once you hit £35k+ per annum your in Super Tax! :bang: . I know a Bloke who pays £1100 a month! then hes got his £1200 a month mortgage .

depends on what kind of line of work your in!

really,are you on part time with limited availability to work?

 

[oldskoolmk1unoturbo]

no i work when i want to and when i feel like it, like as today i felt like having a day off so i did!

 

[Hellcat]

Sadly not everyone can do that - kind of need everyone to be there if you're part of a team.

so as im trying to point out but you are choosing to ignore is the OP doesnt have the scope for higher region earnings in their current situation.
so i stand by my previous assesment

not really sure what you mean by that, but I think he should quit, 4.45 is far too low pay, look for a better paying job

funny thing about tax, many people seem to think that if you earn enough to hit the 40% tax rate that your whole income will be taxed at that rate. thats daft. if that was true you would earn less if you had a £40k job compared to a £33k job, and obviously that cant be true. many times i've had arguments about this, usually in pubs with people who went to state schools.

 

[Hellcat]

Obviously you're only taxed at 40% on the earnings over the threshold. But if you're only just over the threshold it seems you're being taxed more. By that time you should be running your own company, paying yourself minimum wage, and taking the rest in directors dividends.
