    On a SUnday I normally go out with my parents or go for a meal and that type of thing. I am not sure how keen my parents would be on me working Sundays.

    Now ... HAAAANG ON A SECOND.

    Good advice. But, studentphil is a dodger-of-work.
    He's young.

    There is no excuse and many people at his age have held down 2-3 jobs working over 80 hours a week just to save for things or get ahead generally.

    It really WON'T hurt him to do the extra hours to be honest. In fact, it would be beneficial health-wise as it would help him grow a backbone.

    You've just described my early 20s. ;)

    Now I work full time, commute weekly from Cardiff to London, run 2 homes, and study in my spare time!

    SP - what else could you be doing with those 8 hours? :confused:

    go out with my Mum, go out for my dinner, go out shopping, go out to the park- I could do many other things.

    Any of those things worth £50 to you?

    It should be your choice SP, not your parents ...

    I will put down for it, but if a lot of people are interested then it might be just one every two weeks or just once a month.
