Why?
A footballer could answer £3,200,000 for December 2015 and a supermarket shelf filler could answer £1,400 (because of Xmas overtime)... so what? What does it prove?:hello:0 -
I'm trying to remember. It may have been 20p. Or maybe it was £17 billion...
Actually, I think it was somewhere in between.0 -
Mine are all the same size, about 3 inches by 6.But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,Had the whole of their cash in his care.

Well, it depends on how you define "pay packet"....
If we are talking about an electronic payment, such as a bank transfer, then I would say that the size is probably a few hundred kilobytes as it would effectively be an encrypted data transfer.
If we are talking a physical pay packet then I'm afraid that I have never been paid in £50 notes, so the biggest would have been the size of a £20 note; roughly 15cm by 8cm but probably the size of a small envelope which is slightly larger than these dimensions.0 -
Never had a pay packet in my 38 years of employment, always paid directly into my bank a/cIf you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales0

Would have to be the time that Payroll ran out of the normal sized envelopes so they used A3 envelopes instead, they were huge.0

more than enough to buy a bag of chips, but less than enough to buy a small caribbean island.0

It's an MSE data collection bot. I don't understand why people keep responding to it.0
