hey, just wondering how much people get paid for summer jobs....? i get £4.60 an hour but all my mates get more than that working elsewhere....i feel so deprived!


Don't you mean wage. A salary is a fixed sum regardless, of how many hours you work, though there is always a minimum amount you have to work. A wage is paid upon how many hours you actually work, sorry to be pedantic.

I used to get paid about £140 a week doing about 25 hours per week. Not bad
hmmm about £5.00 p.h at the moment but in a few months it will go up to about £15,000 p.a with regular raises.

£7 p/h warehouse work - so not worth the permanent back trouble awaiting you after doing this job.

Go on...

We all admire you, and would like to know the figure, to see what we could earn.
5.60 per hour in customer service, makes me yearn for the era of my 14 hour a day 4.75 work in fish processing days :rolleyes: .
£5.75 an hour for working at my local Leisure Centre as a Leisure Assistant its sometimes hard physical work but when courts or halls are not booked we get paid for not doing anything sometimes.
i get 8.25 an hour in my gap year job, finish tomorrow tho!
