Pounds per hour: £5.01
Hours per week: 12 (usually works out at about 16 with overtime)
Job Position: Customer Service Assistant (or Checkout Girl), Sainsbury's
City: York

I am under 18 though, so it's not a bad wage.

true enough, although I refuse to accept that young people are worth less than those over 22. In my experience of the workplace younger people often end up doing the most demanding and dangerous jobs.

I remember getting a job when I was 19 (2006) and being paid £4.90 an hour. This would have been ok if I hadn't worked for about £6.10 in my previous role.

My first payslip was devastating.

If I only work my directed time it's about £17, but I often work more which dilutes my hourly wage.

I'm a teacher in Suffolk.

Your salary seems very low for a civil engineer. Are you a contractor and get perks?
