I used to get that when I worked in a shop. However, the downside of having a proper job with a salary is that I don't anymore. Boo.

True, but im only 16 (17 in January) so its pretty hard for me to get a proper job, especially with college and stuff.
Still though 18 quid an hour (roughly tripple 5.95) wasnt bad.

Yeah, you can't argue with that can you? That's the reason I once wroked 9AM - 9PM on Christmas Eve. I was too worn out to get excited on Xmas day. At the time I was trying to get enough money together to last me through my final year on uni. I did think I had enough, but by the end of that year I had managed to run up nearly £4,000 on my student loan and £1,500 on overdraft. Tis expensive being a stude...

Yep, thats why im starting to save up my money, my mum keeps saying that she isnt going pay for any of it (i know she will a bit) so im not spending much at the moment (apart from presents for other people).
Just too bad i couldnt work today and get all that extra money. :(

The other thing that annoys me is I'm not actually doing anything even thought I am here.
When I worked in a shop I felt I was actually helping people get what they needed for Christmas and to help the company earn some money.
Now I'm just sat here in the office randomly surfing the internet. None of our business users even know we're here today and 90% of our suppliers are shut. So there is nothing to do. At all.

Snap. I'm only here to do some last minute banking but I've done sod all work wise. Once the cleaners have been (they said they'd be here early, approx. 10.30) I'm outta here.
