Currently a welfare rights officer for the social services dept, £22,000 so usual local gov perks... cheap gym, lease car, pension scheme and just got a 1% pay rise backdated to april 09
Im 21 and i work for the citizens advice as an advisor.
i work 9-4.30 every day for 5.80 p/h
i suppose the only perk is the actual job its immensly rewarding helping people from sorting out there debts to rehousing domestic violence victims and improving peoples income by opening there eyes to benefits they are entitled to.
I am a full time Benefit and Money Adviser for a leading non profit charity and I LOVE my job

Please note forum police I suffer from dyslexia so my spelling and grammar can be dreadful- sorry but I cant help it!
Age 24, Air Traffic Controller in the SE of England.
Salary at the mo approx £57000, will be approx £94000 in 7 years (Top of payscale + Shift pay). Add in pay for instructing trainees and it will be about 105k.
Final Salary pension, 38 days leave a year, 4 days off at a time, free gym and sports facilities, health and dental insurance, great colleagues, great laugh, and after my headset comes off there's no more work - nothing to take home!
Best job in the world by a mile! (In my humble opinion!) :-)
Just graduated from UEA with a 2:1 BA (Hons) in Philosophy, Politics and Economics at the age of 21 this year.
Working as a Pensions Administrator for a large life company getting paid £14,420.00 pa plus tiny bonus which I probably won't get and a little bit of overtime here and there if I'm lucky. I'm being moved to a different department in November and hope for a bit of a rise then but not holding my breath! Job is not challenging enough, I could do my manager's job standing on my head and the company knows it but no opportunities.
I know that my wage is pants for my age but every job I apply for always has more experienced/qualified applicants. Wholeheartedly regret going to uni as I would be on a MUCH higher wage now if I'd worked F/T for those 3 yrs and current job doesn't use the degree at all.
