Wage is crap that's the point. Why should people have to work 40 hours a week?
Also I refuse to pay into a society where corruption and thievery is rewarded in business and supported.
Cost of Living - Shrinkflation is speeding up at an alarming rate

But you're cutting off your own nose to spite your face.
You'd rather live a stressful life, just to not pay tax?
Yes, paying tax is annoying, but the benefits of living stress-free money wise are great.
Have a think about it
This came to mind tbh, if you see he is running in a loop.

What company is paying you sub-12k for 40 hours work, tell us, we will report them to HMRC?

Sigh. Like talking to a child.
Why should someone in retail work 40 hours a week to be able to have barely enough for to have a family?

Im not talking to someone, i'm talking to you, you said you are break even or so at 12k, with a mortgage paid off soon enough. Seems like a great position to be in which you then completely sabotage for some insane reason.

Shrinkflation for me is better than price rises. The bigger the pack the more I eat.
With the packs smaller its less to eat
It annoys me though because a lot of the time the packs get smaller but the prices still rise.

Perhaps some training and getting a better job will allow you to be paid more for your time, and thus raise your aspirations.
If everyone had your viewpoint of not paying any tax into the system, and expecting everyone else to support you, society would collapse. I, for one, am happy to pay into the system that takes care of me and my family, and the community around me.

But clearly it's better to just do the minimum and not pay into society, and then complain the society doesn't do enough for you

Have trained unfortunately the business I was in rip people customers off and promote this workplace ethnics, I didn't fit that their corruption
meanwhile on the price of food
if they look like the advert looks interesting, are they assembled in the individual shops ?
wonky veg in Aldi are legitimate, cheaper for potentially a bit more prep time onion+pots, last time in asda while back, their wonky veg boxes were a blind/sealed purchase.
Sainsbury’s rolls out £2 ‘Taste Me, Don’t Waste Me’ fruit and veg boxes to help reduce food waste

Not sure if you know, but Tax does not work that way, you don't suddenly pay 20% on your whole salary, just 20% on every £1 over £12570 (assuming normal tax code), you would never be working anytime for nothing..
If you earn £12570 a year, you pay no tax and take home £1047 a month
If you earn minimum wage for a 37.5hour week, you earn £18525 and take home £1384 a month..
£340 take home extra a month will certainly take the edge of things IMO..

Don't worry @Johno please? .... I eat tons of the stuff to make up for @Ahleckz and yourself... Smash burger, 8 chicken wings and brisket loaded fries last night just for dinner
Astute is the word I personally thought of when reading that...
Yeah but you're as judgemental and blinkered as they come so there's no shock there.
I am not sure where to start here and on your other self pitying posts... It's got that bad that I actually find myself in agreement with @platinum87

I'm aware of that
I could earn that (£12k) by just working 2 thirds of a day per week.
But I like buying stuff. oh and have a wife, kids, house, cat, 3 cars... so on so forth.

They must earn more than that, how on earth can you get a mortgage on £12k.

Think he's close to retirement, so presumably was on a lowish wage when houses were affordable, and now has such a small mortgage remaining it's irrelevant.
Soldato
So getting to the age where he can rip the arse out of the NHS that he has refused to pay any tax into by his own belligerent choice?

Similar post also from @Sankari , you should consider what exactly you think i am wrong about, to be shocked in such a way, before finally realizing i was right all along.
A stopped clock and all that.
So you're on 90k a year?
That's hardly comparable to someone on minimum wage, who would be working an additional 48h a month for £8/h (after tax).
I don't agree with @hornetstinger, but £90k isn't representitive of most people. You're in the top 5% of earners easily.
