My first wage, age 16 as a trainee draughtswoman was just 11 pounds a week. 10.52 after deductions. Somehow I managed to learn to drive, run a car, pay my mum bed and board and save money on that!
My next job, a year later, as a computer operator gave me an astounding 23 pounds a week take home pay.
When I started here 25 years ago, I ended up with about £400 a month spending money, these days despite a four fold increase in basic pay, it's probably nearer to spending £400 a month more than I earn! (Mortgage, family... ...no longer young, free & single)
