Would you do this for 5.95 per hour?

Are there any English people willing to work like this for 6 quid per hour?

 

[geekyEd]

Not on your nelly

 

[nydryl]

I'd do that over being unemployed.

 

[Jez]

Surely it depends on the situation. In the absence of any other work then yes i would.

 

[G-MAN2004]

Nope. Of course, if it was the last job on earth or be on benefits, then I'd certainly do it.

 

[Rroff]

They are having a laugh... 10pm til 6am usually pays atleast £8p/h or more.

 

[Yas786]

Wouldnt expect many Brits to be doing that sort of job but expect quite a few immigrants to do the job....que the bleating about the immgrants stealing our jobs

Exactly right. Sadly not the view of many people.

 

[JHeaton]

Even that's better pay than my current job (though my hours are far superior ) :/

I'd rather do something I liked, but if that was the best thing available, then why I'd go for it. I'd rather do a horrible job than just stay unemployed.

 

[Glaucus]

Yes.
A) it is casual work so will be low paid.

B) I would accept any work if I did not have a job, Always have and always will. I do not believe people when they say they can not find a job. what they really mean is they can't find a job they like, or they have not been trying or looking hard enough.

 

[ScarySquirrel]

I did Royal Mail sorting once (for 3 days) through an agency, the pay was damn good, but it was literally the most boring thing I have done in my life.

 

[Rroff]

Pay would be okish for a 9-5 but for those hours....

 

[FoxEye]

In Cornwall, £6 is typical for admin work and general work like this.

You're lucky to get more down here.

 

[a1ex2001]

I wouldn't do it right now as I earn significantly more for doing something significantly more interesting, but were I to fall on hard times I would consider it. The wage on offer seems perfectly reasonable to me for what is a low skill, low labour job.

Yes, I used to have the early shift in my local depot (6am-2pm).

If there weren't the immigrants, then Royal Mail would have to offer better money and/or T&Cs.

Hooray for Labour's open door immigration policy, totally screwing the working class - the very people the Labour party is supposed to be for.

That tells you something, when so many people are on hand outs.

get out and work, you are only worth what someone will pay.

 

[Gackt]

Better than not having a job at all.

 

[Von Smallhausen]

I would if I had to.

 

[Jokester]

I could imagine a lot less desirable jobs you could do for the minimum wage.
