It actually does. Normally a big party wouldn't double up a portfolio with a Great Office. That Johnson has says that there's nobody he can trust in the party.

How much does something like that pay? I'm just generally curious.
Not very well!

This was like 7 years ago but it was zero hours at minimum wage. Each job had a garanteed '5 hours' but they'd take half an hour off that for unpaid breaks. I think once or twice we finished in like three hours but thats still a full day with travel.

We were paid fortnightly but with a 2 week delay and my first pay packet was something like £27 because i worked one shift before the cutoff point. My biggest pay packet was something like £900 but that was working every available shift including a count at a bra store in brighton that lasted more than 12 hours. If you ever want to see teenagers get over their instinct to giggle endlessly at ladies underwear attend a stocktake at a lingere store lol. Generally I'd take in somewhere between £300 and £600 a fortnight and even the poo poo retail job i worked after was better paid and didn't require me to sit in a minivan for 4 hours a day.

It was awful backbreaking work for little pay where the management treated you like poo poo with zero job security or even garantee of work from day to day. I worked along side people who were attempting to support families and also a lot of under 25s who naturally got paid even less. That one isle at B&Q with the billion individually barcoded bags of screws still passively stresses me out too lol

So yeah ban zero hours contracts imo gently caress the 'gig economy' and everyone who argues about 'flexability', Zero hours is just companies getting away with worse conditions and pay and in exchange you can risk turning down work offered with the understanding that 'unreliable' people stop getting shifts altogether.

Sorry to go on so much, I'm lucky enough to work for a pretty decent company nowadays but I'm not going to forget how people who aren't so fortunate get shafted and treated like poo poo on a daily basis

Is it gauche to shill your new YouTube channel in the thread? I feel it may be but if anyone is interested drop me a PM :) mostly just me loving about for now but aiming to get into documentary film making and figure making daft but nicely shot videos (which my first assuredly isn’t) is good practice for the videography side of things.
