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)

Im a room supervisor in a private day care nursery and earn £17.500 a year before tax thats for 40 hours a week

Wow thats high wages jojo my manager in a nursery dealing with the most deprived and SS cases only gets £13500!

I'm 24, no degree, couple of years' experience, £21k as a legal PA f/t.

Minx - why would you resent dh earning 65k a year? Do you work?

noodle69 I do have to travel for roughly 2 hours as the wages are better where I work than where I live. Think it all depends on what type of nursery you work for ie I work for a chain not a one off.

I work as a pa (well, something similar anyway) 15 hours a week for £6800 a year.

I also work between 10 and 30 hours a week in another job for £16500 a year.

I don't have a degree. I have about 2 years experience in the first job and 4 years in the higher paid one.

Im a qualified nanny

38 hrs pw over 4 days

£1245 pcm after tax

my earnings over the year come to about 9K gross, but I am not officially employed and am fortunate enough to be able to fit in some work making cakes plus other bits without having to pay for childcare.

I am also very lucky that this money gets us bonus extra's as we are used to living off DH's salary.

I earn 43,000 as an HR Manager in the public sector, 35 hours p/w but more like 40-45 but it's local. By my mid to late 20's (mid 80's to mid 90's)I earned over 100k as a eurobond salesman but gave it up when ds1 came along. Started at the bottom again in 2003 on about 8k for 17.5 hours pw. I have more responsibility, higher stresses and a more unreasonable workload now though. I am not the major breadwinner.

Compo - minx said she would earn 37k for full time - working as a nurse.

Author. Earnings have been between £8000 and £35000, averaging £18,000, for the same amount of work (about 20-25 hours a week), including some freelance editing work. How much I earn depends on foreign rights sales and how hard novels are marketed.

Jojo - Yeah mine is part of the government unfortunately chains here the pay is lower!

I am self employed.

Each year is different and difficult to predict.

Interesting.
I work full time, earn £34k (university researcher).
DH earns much less, but is self employed and works roughly same hours/week as me.

Retail. Basic is £7.25p/h but half my hours are 'unsociable' so for those I get an additional £2p/h. I only work 12 hours p/w though so on a usual month I get around £400.

I work as a Debt Counsellor, 14 hours pw over 2 days. I earn approx £750pm after tax.

I have no bills, dh pays for all living exps and car costs, food etc and also gives me an allowance of £800pm for personal expenditure.

Was in a similar situation as happybubblebrain. Now earn about £123 a week SMP. Will be looking to go back part time however many hours I need to match that. Think it's about 16. I'm glad OP gets a decent wage being a nurse - so she should.

37k if full time, but currently 25 hours so whatever that is pro rata.

I'm on £59K plus (in theory)a bonus of up to 10% of pay. Work as a solicitor (not in London) and average about 50 hours a week. No dh though so I never feel as if I have any money to spare.

I work in retail so I get paid a pittance plus a nice bonus of getting abuse off some members of the public that think it is ok to look down on me.

But it is worth it because I get the kids out of my hair for 14 hours a week the nice customers make up for it!

Pointless thread of the year.

I work in the city. Have degree and masters in finance. 35 yrs old. Work in small firm which is owned by the staff. Basic 125k and bonus range of 1 to 1.5x annual salary. Love my job and know very fortunate that it is also well paid.

YANBU to ask
YABU to expect an answer from me.

Work in journalism. Earn £54kpa for a 40-hour week. The teenage-me would be drop-jawed at the idea I might ever earn that much money. The adult me is drop-jawed at how skint I still am. Single mother in central London, exDP pays minimal contributions, DS in fulltime childcare (£1100 a month), I rent a minuscule two-bedroom flat with no outside space for £1600 a month (can't move further out, as I need to be close enough to work to fit work-day into childcare day). Add on bills, food and transport and there is nowt left. Keep trying to work out where I'm going wrong; haven't managed to pin it down yet ...
