Where do you work and how much do you get paid per hour?

Just out of interest :biggrin:


And also, full time or part time?

Call Centre
Part Time - casual hours In an ideal week I do 32.5 hours/week.
£6.50/hour, or £7/hour if I'm doing admin work (also get to use a badass pink timesheet when doing admin work)

It's a great student job because you can work when you want. However when the work starts to dry up (as it is right now; accursed govt. cuts) you run the risk of having only one shift/no hours at all because there's only so many staff hours to go between everyone.

Waitress/Bar Maid
Part time: zero hours based, so whenever I'm home from uni, I can just ring up and ask for whatever spare shifts they have. Usually around 20 hours a week or so, loads more at Christmas.
Oh and I only get whatever minimum wage is for an 18 year old :frown:

Waitress, Part-time. £5 an hour, just like it was at my old job. Although with tips it can be a bit more, £7/h maybe?
Not the most fulfilling job in the world :biggrin:

I'm just a cashier at a supermarket, I work about 20 hours a week and I get paid $10.25 per hour. Not sure how much that would be in pounds though.

Private teacher at Mímir, two lessons a week, 45mins each: over 50 quid a week. So, roundabouts 50 quid an hour.

Before that, I was an assistant manager, in training, in a bar on a salary of 15.5k a year.

Employer: sony
Hours: 45 including saturdays
Wages: £12.30ph
I work for a sports photographer and get paid £7ph. Sometimes I can be doing absolutely nothing for an hour or more but I still get paid for it. I enjoy it, I get to work outside, it's pretty relaxed and it's a really small company and we all get on.

For a bank call centre right now I'm dealing with savings for tax year end, usually I'm in sales. Part time, 16hours a week.

£8.50ph plus 15%extra for working Sundays and nights.
Plus my quarterly bonus, so an extra £300ish every three months.

I worked in a restaurant part time at uni and then full time until I got my Commission in the Navy. I was earning about £13-14 an hour if you include tips and that was an average week, more over Xmas. I also did a bit of A-level and GCSE tutoring at up to £25 per hour.

Iceland Foods, part time during term time, full time in the holidays, £6.40 and hour with a good chance of getting another pay rise this year :smile:
Work for Cellar Trends doing promotion work on the weekends.
Pay: £10.18 an hour
Hours: Roughly 9/10 a week, working Friday and Saturday night.
Overall pretty good student job!
At the moment I have a cushy part time job in a Library, just in there for 12 hours over the weekend around term time, and get holidays off :smile: £7.40 an hour.
I was on £6.67 per hour for 15 hours a week at Waitrose.

Now I'm on £7.25 per hour for 12 hours (average per month) a week at John Lewis. Also including a Sunday shift, which is 1.5x

So, I work less hours overall per month, and get around the same pay :smile:
