First ever political post

Sounds similar to bankers.

Bank workers under constant threat of redundancy, make a mistake or even what the regulator deems a mistake when it's mot it's on your licence for life if you are in a role that requires a licence.

Oh and the starting salary for a clerk will be about 14k.

[Returnofrros]

What do you suggest mate, considering the starting pay is £34,000

£40,000 ?

They get 40k they want 45, they get 45 they want 50k.

The public have been suckered into thinking nurses are poorly paid......they ain't.

Ave GP salary over 100k, my practice has had its doors bolted shut for 15 months.

…..but according to some on here enough is never enough for the poor nurses and doctors.

They deserve everything and more…and then more again…just because.

When you question it with them they run away claiming ‘troll troll troll’.

Ārseholes.

£26,100 is the starting salary for a qualified nurse.

But that will just be the basic.

Throw in weekend and nights and that wage soars to well over £30,000.

Starting wages for a nurse is £26.5k up to a max of just under 30k when nights and weekends are worked

Depends on what the correct salary is, some say 34k, the last poster just under 30k.If it's the latter that ain't great with shift and weekend work for a qualified nurse imo. It's costing my mate a fortune putting his daughter to uni to become a nurse and 4 year degree also so not as great as u think.

Getting sick of agreeing with you. 🤨

I'm not saying some are very dedicated but I go back to my original point.....a small % will be extremely dedicated, vast majority will do a fair days work for imho a very fair pay and some will lazy arse there way thru their career and pick up a very nice pension.

At least nobody has said they have to visit food banks yet but that may be coming.

If they have a very savvy PR union that exploits govt weakness and public gullibility good luck to them but I'm no having it nurses are poorly paid......they simply ain't.

Fire service tried to go down similar route after 9/11.....every bugger a hero.....it's simply untrue.

A wider discussion on how well the public sector have done since covid and the pretty dreadful services that are now being offered should be taking place.....instead.....give us more dosh.

Can’t be doing many unsocial hours in their roster for those figures.

Doing two Saturdays and and two Sundays a month will earn them

£2312 for the Sunday’s and £1156 for the Saturday over the course of a year

Throw in the midweek night shifts (all nurses nhs staff have different)

But another £2817 for your midweek nights

So easily over £6,000

30% allowance for midweek nights and any time Saturday
60% for Sundays and bank holidays

Yup….

2x12 hour Sundays a month is worth £2312 alone

[frankiekopel]

If they work 24 Saturdays and 24 Sundays are year they deserve all the pay they get, I certainly wouldn't do it for thqt money
