What pay rise you getting this year?

[Long slender neck]

Been offered 3%. Should I strike for more?

[RedDwarf 1881]

I’m getting 2% which my Union said was an insult . We’re going to be balloted for industrial action in the next couple of weeks

[RedDwarf 1881]

Actually, I can see a national strike on the cards .

[Max Fowler]

I’m getting 0%

[CEB]

Depends on how much Max wants a drawing of his postie

Taxi fares have gone up a cool 30% in the last year and I've banged 10% onto consultancy fees. This is on top of hiring out my taxi when I'm not working which brings in another £150pw.

The only draw back I can see is that the taxi has actually been off the road for two weeks as my driver had an accident so I haven't been able to apply the fare hike. On the plus side I would have been off with Covid anyway but I will of course be claiming loss of earnings. Its win win.

It's only going to look like Katie Perry anyways so I'm going to leave it for now.

[Give it to Jabo]

Whatever happened to the sunlit uplands promised thru Brexit?? Can not all be caused by the Russian/UK conflict. Shouldn't the West be trying to negotiate a truce??

[Dunners]

4.25% so far.

Do you ever get the feeling you are walking sideways down a descending escalator?

[Orient_Man_And_Boy]

3% , the amount my pension will always rise. So with inflation I’m already three years behind right now.
But at least I haven’t got a rather nasty neighbouring president showering me with bombs.

And, more happily, I’ve just posted my SC application to Fortress Brisbane.

[EliotNes]

However much the State Pension increases.

[spen666]

What is a pay rise?

[Southcoastsoftee]

I’ll be getting exactly the same as last year ( and probably next year as well ). Sweet F A. Still I’m lucky to have a job so I can contribute all my taxes eh?

[aylesburyos]

[BIGRON]

However much the State Pension increases.

Ditto

[Constanza]

11% but first one in 5 years....

[Scuba Diver]

Started with new company in January, so I would imagine zilch.
Understandably so, of course..

So Brexit’s to blame for the worldwide pandemic and the war in Ukraine .

[tuffers#1]

Im bringing in over double what i was 3 months ago
So around 125% id guess

[Admin]

Yes.

[Max B Gold]

Getting my taxi back this afternoon and looking forward to increasing my earnings from zero to shed loads during this rail strike. The hires to the city will be piling in. I may need to change my name to Glasgow Max and buy a wheelbarrow to take my money to the Credit Union.

[Dunners]

Just get yourself a crypto wallet and save on the wheelbarrowing.

Geezer, it was a painful psychological experience akin to mental torture just getting a card machine. Don't even go there with fake currency.
