Sorry PaP - I'm not knocking the wage as such - it is through an agency, and I know that if it were direct employment, the wage would be around £8 - £9 an hour, as it's for nights. Incidentally, the cheese factory was one of my customers and they use some equipment that I supplied.
No PaP - it was the hours, plus the agreement to do 80 hours a week, that I couldn't accept:beer:I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.
