Default Whinge! Was Leylandii

The message
from "PaulK" contains these words:


£15/hour for 1850 working hours (normal employed working time) x 75% =
£20,800 top line income before any business costs are taken out


That would be an above average wage here. In Scotland as a whole,
plenty of people do skilled and responsible work for far less. For
instance, the back of public buses in Glasgow carry an advert which says
"PSV licence holders wanted as bus drivers; £6 per hour". On Arran, many
jobs in tourism, public services and care homes, pay under £6 per hour.
