Royboy Posted May 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2021 Wages are definitely improving for us I reckon, the last place I worked at I was there 20 years and paid 20k a year ! So for me to start this job on £30k and 4 day week was unreal ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys that repair our refuse collection vehicles were on around 30k , but they were given a 10% payrise last year , because most of them left and went to another local authority.
