Not at the minute no. I've not been paid for 7 weeks. I should have had my first pay day last Friday.

Yes, I like my job. Even if I didn't (like my job) I would like the concept of earning.

I love my Job, it's more like a hobby for me so yes (although I've had jobs in the past that I hated), so it just depends if you enjoy what you do I suppose

Yeah, more than I thought I would.

Can't wait to have a full time job as a teacher, as it's something i've got a passion about, i'm sure i'll enjoy it.

They're taking the p***. You want to threaten them with legal action or something, it can't be that difficult for them to do a transfer to your bank or something.

I like earning, I don't dislike my job but it can get a bit boring. I preferred being self employed and may go back to that at some point.

Please do. I wasn't even aware of the first one. But this week is surely taking the piss. How difficult is it for head office to put money in my account.

I like my job and my colleagues. It gets stressful and manic at times but rewarding too.

I don't know the details obviously, but there is something seriously disturbing here Lucas Michael. I would be strongly pressing your employers for full settlement of all outstanding wages if I were you. Seriously.

Someone I knew started work for a Damp Proofing Company who did not pay him for months and I warned him something was wrong but he was too timid and laid back for his own good. The bastards went out of business without paying him and left him in all kinds of difficulties with the Inland Revenue because of their chicanery.

Get on it mate.

I keep trying to get a job but nobody will hire me.

Maybe I'm just too attractive and modest for them.

I absolutely love what I do for a living and it is not 'work' to me at all. I actually end up working far harder and for far longer hours than I would if I hated my job.
