in Debt-free wannabe
I left my job about 2 weeks ago because it was making me ill and stressed and I felt demanded a lot on a low wage. Last week I had no jobs and yesterday I had a job but was disheartened today when I checked my bank balance and realised I wouldn't have enough to pay my OH for the rent this month without chipping into my savings (saving up to pay off ex-student overdraft) - anyway I walked out of the bank and received a call offering me a job for tonmorrow and the day after! - and the money is 8.46 an hour(!!!) I mean for an admin job? answering the phones/directing people? I would have expected about 6 pounds an hour or 6.50 but 8.46? I'm just hoping he told me the correct wage but even so - I'm so happy to have a job for 2 days. :j :j
