    You should get much more than 50% for your second job. I also have two jobs and get 73% of my gross wage in my 2nd job.

    What tax code is your 2nd employer using? You should be on BR and you shouldn't be paying any more tax overall in your two jobs than if you earned the same amount in one job.

    In many cases, you actually benefit by having 2 jobs instead of earning the same amount in only one job as you should pay less national insurance in your second job.

    Part time self employed engineer £28k
    Part time self employed employee motivator £35k
    Annual tax bill before deductions £9.6k

    um ... what is a 'self employed employee motivator'? or is it a joke?:o

    It sounds like you are paid to turn up and boot people up the jacksy - is it a bit like that? If so, I could do that.

    Gobsmacked at some of the salaries on here ... and some so young!

    I earn about £20,000 I think + car and bupa.
    Job title, not sure. It's a stupid job, unsocial hours and boring to boot.

    Managing a small emergency out of hours response team

    £18.20 per hour. And 10 weeks holiday a year

    Not a bad job and have no intention of looking elsewhere for now, as it's the 10 weeks off I love, and doubt I could find any other company to match that
