probably won't be able to afford to fly whilst paying of £85k anywayI suspect she’ll be on a No-Fly list shortly.

I understand the reason that Baristas are not well paid, its a low skill job that you can be trained to do to a competent level in a couple of months. With that said, its a horrible job and extremely hard work.
My other half runs a chain coffee shop in the city. Her contracted hours are 47.5 hours a week. The store opening hours are 6.30 to 6 Monday to Friday - to complete all the tasks for opening she needs to be there for around 5.30am, if she is closing she'll leave at 6.30-7. A "double shift" is basically 12 hours on your feet, non stop. Its a busy store, there are usually queues even outside of peak hours. There is no paid sickness, lunch breaks are unpaid although food on shift is subsidised.
I'm in a niche accounting role, paid 3x what she earns. I work hard, my job is challenging, but despite all that hers is harder - if you offered me the same money I'm on now to do it, I wouldn't.
Because of the low barriers to entry in her role, she is replacable, so they can get away with paying such a low rate - but don't look down on people who work in the service industry or retail (10 years retail here in my past) - because despite the low skill requirement those jobs can be extremely challenging.
MY thoughts exactly but I was thinking more like 40! It seems the combination of alcohol and what ever drugs she might be taking have taken a toll on her appearance as well as making her behave like a lunatic.25!! yeah right.....more like 35
30 years ago most households had zero pc's, zero mobile phones, 3 channels on their TV, a vcr was a months wages and a games console just about played pong.
And a car was a distant dream only the wealthy could afford.
30 years ago? Do I live in an alternate reality to you guys?
You mean they aren't supposed to do that?. . . I still remember my mother's excitement at her first washing machine. It made a hell of a racket and shook like it was going to explode any minute . . .

I tend to disagree. I was at college not long after then and had a 25 year old car which cost over £1000 to insure even back then. These days kids get brand new Renault Clios or BMW 1 series on PCP. Driving was VERY expensive, so much so that I would cycle rather than use my car more often than not. There was also no minimum wage, so I was earning £3 an hour doing a cleaning job while studying.Just what i was thinking....30 years ago was only 1989, bar the internet things were hardly different to now
I think your both generalising. The 'loadsamoney' folk were a handful of yuppies in the city and in no way were representative of the larger general population.lets be honest, they didn't, thirty years ago saw the Lawson budget ending MIRAS, so a massive boom in house prices followed by a bust and negative equity. Also a lot of redundancy.
It was also the era of 'loadsamoney' . So no people didn't live within their means.
No,i was born in 1967, and i still remember showing my Mum , rather proudly, my first cave painting in1985.30 years ago? Do I live in an alternate reality to you guys?

One of the passengers did tackler her (and ex bouncer) but even with him leading the efforts it took two other people to fully restrain her.What kind of pussys were on that flight? One swift nut and she would be out for the duration.
£1000? Where were you living, Beirut? I paid £750 when I was 18 for my first years insurance back in 1997 and that's on the back of my dad have 3 of his cars stolen in the space of 7 years.I tend to disagree.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7jj_ya1nOgtrying to open the doors mid flight? is that not attempted murder?
what would have happened if she had gotten the door open? surely she should be banned from flying ever again on any airline for at least 10 years? also some prison time?
Err, this definitely not my experience, me and my mates who were all students mostly had cars.And a car was a distant dream only the wealthy could afford. Or in our case a company car my father had to take driving lessons for the first time in his life and he wasn't happy but it was a requirement for the job. I still remember my mother's excitement at her first washing machine. It made a hell of a racket and shook like it was going to explode any minute but she didn't have to wash clothes by hand for the first time in her life!
