      Definitely not great....but if you lived next door to it and wanted a quiet life, then maybe, but when you live 200 miles away and the overnight stay is London

      Just wish the guys would put a rate on. Apart form anything else it would reduce the number of applicants they get.

      Disappointing as the role was good and the agent sounded like a decent guy.

        Balls it is. Up here £35k is a great salary... and you can live well off it.

            North-East. Although I assume anywhere in the north is similar if you don't want to live in the centre of a city.

              A lot of people would be delighted to get paid half of that. I think your perspective may have become a little warped.

                I wouldn't be delighted. Who are these people of whom you speak?

                  £35k is my bar bill for the year

                  Exaggerating of course but I could adjust to that if I had no choice but I have no real commitments other than looking after myself.

                  What about folks with families, big mortgage, trying to live a lifestyle they can't afford (I know plenty of people who have unrealistic expectations), it's not much to work with unless frugal makes you happy.

                    Er, this is a contractor's forum. Are you in the right place?
