Is that base salary, OTE (for sales) or base salary + bonus?

What I earn varies from year to year as the profits/bonus pool expands/contracts. Some years I will earn £100k+ others (especially since 2008) will be considerably less than that.

Good Point! I earn more some years than others. You can list your basic I guess and if you feel it significant list "potential" bonus earnings as well. I have ammended my first post to reflect my bonus as well.

26-30, £15001-£20000, Public Sector, IT, Level 5, Durham, 31-40 Hours PW, 7"

PS This thread is flawed. People can just put what they want and lie making it not really a good thread.

The OP has just changed the salary markers so you may not be.

Not that you have actually posted yourself yet.

Interesting that some of the higher earners have lower educational levels. Does that indicate something perhaps?

Proof tbh

I think I am either the only person, or one of a very select group of people, whose penis has actually featured on OcUK

Boredom.. independent thinking.. could be a few things, I guess.

Didn't take long lol.

One thing I would take into account its the hours/week worked, some people will be on huge wages but will be in 80 hrs per week.

Yes, hours are needed too. I have changed mine to match hours worked.

I am also curious as to how this trend seems to present itsself. Do you think those that take the education route find them selves stuck on a set career path, whereas those that do not have the contraints of education are free to push further in a field as they are not labeled with a specific level of education?

Or are the dunces too busy dribbling to get women and thus earn more money due to having more time on their hands?

That with every sod going to university (incl. me and my generation), having a bachelors isn't really an indication of anything?

I think that's much more likely, no one knows me here so I can say pretty much whatever I like, not like I'll ever meet anyone from here

did I say 7", I meant 9" - wide!

I'm not currently working in my degree field. Well not directly anyway.

Degree = Systems Analysis
Job = glorified code monkey

I don't think a degree constrains you as much as your experience and the type of companies you work for.
