To ask you all how much you get paid?

[UnderWorkedOverPaid]

Name-Change if you want to - I have. AIBU to be curious what other people earn?

I am a nurse. Qualified 6 years. Work 30 hours a week.

I earn about 25k (with unsocial hours etc added in)

I used to work part time for a local authority processing claims for housing benefit and earned £12k PA for a 30 hour week. Am just about to be a student nurse and will get £6k PA while studying.

FTE (i work p/t)for my job just been re evaluated at £24k. No bonuses & allowances just been cut. This is top of the scale & no promotion available without doing a 4 year degree which would put me up£2k

my basic pay before tax is £771.60.

That is based on a 30 hour contract @ £6.43 an hour

I work in retail.

38k, lecturer _ teach 23 hours a week, no overtime but charge £30ph for private tuition. Very high outgoings too including childminding so nowhere near enough atm but once dd is three then more than enough

Used to earn £50k for a 35hr week, dropped to four days pro rata, then took a career break a year ago. Can go back to it in another two years if I want. Professional economist (managerial level) working in the civil service. So earnings right now = zero!

Seed investor (funding new companies), have a degree and PhD. I earn 3/5 of £60k as part time. Am very lucky to have interestng, flexible and well paid job but have been working in the field for 12 years and have worked hard to get where i am.

Magnolia, this isn't a criticism of you, but please can people stop saying, "I work hard" to justify what they're paid?

We all work hard, FFS, and most people would agree that scrubbing floors for 8 hours a day is harder work than staring at a computer screen for 12 hours.

"I'm paid well because I'm an expert in a very obscure and yet very in demand field" I'll take {grin].

I work on an IT helpdesk and get £12k PA while the national average is around £17-20k PA. I am studying in my spare time for a business and admin diploma and i work a 37.5hr week.

I have been to uni etc but opportunities in my chosen area are few and far between and i really do consider myself lucky to be employed and able to pay my own way.

My DH is a qualified electrician and has recently started back working for less than 2/3rds of his payscale after nearly 12 months out of work. If i didnt work we would be in a much worse financial situation.

I scrubbed a lot of floors and was generally treated like shit by the public at my 9k a year job so I take exception to "I work hard for my money" too. Everyone works hard!

nothing. i am umemployed and not entitled to benefits. well i could get 5.37 tax credit but i can't be arsed

Highest rate incapacity benefit due to long term and permanent illness.

DH works full time for crap all. We live within our means but its does mean living in a shoe box with no hope of being able to raise a deposit for a semi decent size house.

I earn £9.5K pa for 1.5 days/week (£31,500 if FT) - classroom teacher top of basic pay scale

you work no harder than i do, in fact with all the perks of your job i probebly work harder than you.

Nowt at the mo as at home with baby. Prior to retraining at 27 I was earning around £42k all in, which was a good salary for my age and specialism, but I was very good at what I did and was in an unusual field. And to be honest, was in the right place at the right time, and had the balls to go for a tough job. But, I will freely admit that I didn't work as long/hard as some friends in much lesser paid jobs, I did play with bigger numbers though!

If I went back to work tomorrow in that field after a couple of yrs out, prob about the same. If I used my new qualification in new field, prob only £25k as starting near bottom.

Earn £70k doing marketing for big financial services business. Paid very well for what I do tbh.

Qualified as a solicitor 20 years ago (old gimmer)

Basic salary is £155k, benefits and bonuses variable but usually work out at around £20k on top of that. Work around 55 hours a week plus commute on top.

this is kind of useless without knowing where people live, what they do exactly and how long they have done it for.
but... if you just want to know cause yer nosey...£21k for 37hrs per week but with bonuses can be up to £25k. that's as a restaurant manager.

£84k plus bonus, DH about 35k. Live and work in central london. Thinking of quitting as money does not make job worthwhile.

At 25, 2 years out of university I earnt £150,000 a year it's gone rapidly downhill ever since. 10 years later about £6k last year :(

About 65k plus benefits (shares, private healthcare, pension contributions etc). Work in regulatory affairs in outer London pharma company for 12 yrs. Started on 18k and actually when I look at what I'm on now, doesn't seem to have gone up that much. Work 37.5 hrs per wk; have BSc & MSc. I've worked much harder in the past ie when at school/uni, worked holidays (12 hrs/day) in nursing home for pittance. Most of my day now is spent at computer or on telephone calls. Do not like my job but it pays mortgage.

I earned six figures a year in my previous career, and that was in my early-mid twenties. I also had unimaginable perks (private taxis to shuttle me around everywhere, lots of very glamourous travel, freebies galore).

Now on an appalling TA wage of £15k ...but wouldn't swap it for the world.

Complete lifetsyle change, though, obviously.

I work as a nursery nurse. I recently finished my degree at uni in early childhood studies, and I now earn £6 an hour working with SureStart.

Not working now but used to get £25,500 for 35hrs a week in a non-job. No one noticed if I showed up 1/2 hour late or left 1/2 hour early or took a 2 hour lunch break. I had to 'invent' work to fill my time and in reality spent most of it fighting with the photocopier. Really hated being so bored.

I think it's ironic that I was classed as more valuable to society then, when I was doing not much but technically employed, than I am now as an unemployed Mum.

NHS community job 30 hours a week.. £16,000

being able to take dd to school and pick her up from scholl>>>>> PRICELESS
