    That's what I'm worried about!

    Whoever said I don't have the right experience or whatever, I do also use current software and I do audio typing which most people can't do [^] (apparently).

  • Not being too nosy, but this means you're bringing home after tax in the region of œ500 each month?

    Would you not just consider ANY job in the mean time. You'll notice one heck of a difference from a couple 100 extra each month.

    you have to make people drinks? I would never ever serve someone like that.

    <hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">

    That's stupid, making a brew is the easiest thing in the world, and you'd rather be doing proper work? Back when I had staff I was always happy to make them a brew while they got on with what they were doing, although I was the only one who could brew up properly.

    DJIP you should tell your boss that you need more money and and are looking for work, but tell him you would consider staying if he can offer you more money. Don't be offended or upset if he refuses though, just find something new, or quit work and work for yourself.

  • I don't mind making tea and stuff if it's all taken in turns, but actually being the tea-guy would depress me, and I wouldn't do it.

    Well I don't know what sort of admin you do, but my sister in law does general office admin and stuff on a freelance basis, this is her site. Many small companies don't need someone full time so hire freelancers, it works better for the company than agency staff because they always see the same person.

    You need to put a lot of time into networking and promotion though.

    That was me with reference to you saying they use old software that nobody uses. Remember any prospective employer looks at what you've <b>used</b> rather than what you know (or is often the case think you know).

    My 1st job out of Uni also sucked pay wise, but I came out straight into a recession and at one point was doing 3 jobs to pay off my student loan etc. So I whole heartedly sympathise.

    If you're based in or near London or any major city you could probably earn a great deal more as a temp.
