I have just spent 10 minutes writing a message that i managed to lose somehow, i put at the beginning of my post that it was a rant ie to get it off my chest, obviously that part escaped you but i will answer all your questions.
1, When i applied for my job i was fit and healthy and only had 2 kids, i work 37 hours a week and spent nearly 18 months on a section being bullied by my boss who refused my transfer whilst they were still available and it was only when i moved sections that the transfer was put through however it was too late as all internal transfers were no longer allowed by then, the bullying i lived through was also part of the reason why my financial problems escalated and i never asked for help at work as at the time i was too scared.
2, I apologise profusely that i guessed that the pm had a wage rise, however, he earns in excess of £145k per year and even the average mp earne over £65k per year (i googled it and found the details on the parliament website which i can link you to if i need to prove myself further) and my point was simply that all the top knobs earn so much that they wouldnt have a clue as to how to manage on a measly £16k a year as i do, and btw im an ao which i think is probably the most commmon pay band we have at the mo
3, i do sent my kids with packed lunches as school dinners are nearly £15 a week each here and my oldest son frequently goes without his lunch as do i in order to save money, i just didnt want to put everything down as i was only having a rant!!!!
4, and most importantly, i have worked all my life, i have worked longer hours than a lot of people and i worked right through pregnancies and straight after iv had my kids, any benefits that i receive are simply the government paying me any tax iv paid back and if according to tptb im entitled and if iv paid loads in, why shouldnt i take it back out????
and as for the coming knocking on anyone when the shit hits the fan, believe me, i wont be relying on anyone but me!!!
at the end of the day, my post was about how unfair the system is and since i was feeling down due to a culmination of events i just wanted to post here where i thought i would be if not understood, then at least tolerated, thanks for putting me well and truly in my place!!!
you go girl


just read alas Babylon ,so im going to get more salt!!!!
