"Carers, cleaning staff, binmen - all the essential jobs that aren't valued enough. And Criminal Barristers. Contrary to what many people think, they earn a pittance for cases when they start practising. And their debts are huge. What it means is that only those who come from money will enter the Bar. That's bad news for everyone as it makes the Criminal Justice System even more upper class, white and male. Barristers become judges and so the lack of diversity continues into courts. " | |||

"Carers, we value the people who look after our most vulnerable and carry out personal tasks for them less than people who kick a ball. People complain about the cost of childcare and care homes as if they weren't providing some of the most valuable services in society " To be fair, pretty much everyone gets paid less than a Premiership Footballer does. It is ridiculous how little the care industry pays though, the work is tough and incredibly important but staff are rarely paid any more than the minimum... whilst the industry makes huge profits.

Same with care workers who often look after some of the most vulnerable. I like my taxes to go to them with my blessing | |||

Remember no one owes anyone a living, and no one forces anyone to take or stay in a job; if you don't like the pay or conditions get another job!
I do agree about the pay in the care sector, Police, on the fence with Trumpton as most have a well paying side lines, but I do appreciate the job they do (this is about pay after all before I get slated!)

"Instead of moaning, people can always take control and go self-employed/start a business - you'll also truly see what being underpaid is like when starting out; long hours, no minimum wage, no holiday pay, no sick pay
Remember no one owes anyone a living, and no one forces anyone to take or stay in a job; if you don't like the pay or conditions get another job!
"And if everyone went self-employed, who would fill the vacancies in nursing homes? Or teach our children? Surely, if a job is worth doing, someone could adopt it as a vocation and yet simultaneously fight for higher wages? The alternative would be everyone trying to become Premier league footballers and avoiding the jobs that actually matter! | |||

I agree that they should fight for higher wages, and as I'm sure you'll agree most people who work in public service (emergency services, healthcare, armed forces) aren't merely there because its just a job to them, its a calling and they get immense satisfaction from doing so; unfortunately their paymasters know that they can get away with paying at little as possible because people will still turn up and do the work because its means more than a pay cheque. I take my hat off to those that are that altruistic, wish I was more so inclined!
People moan about footballers wages (the same could be said about most people on TV), yes its ridiculous some of the amount, but that's simply(show) business and free market forces at work; at least they don't get paid out of the public purse! | |||

I looked in my area and the hours are all full-time (37 hours). Council jobs vs private will vary in pay? Unsociable hours, working with rubbish, weekend & public holidays work in some cases. I thought the money didn't seem much for that. | |||

"Firefighters..... They get a decent wage and shifts that allow a second supplementary profession! Nurses are underpaid! Not if they have a family to look after so can't do a 2nd job around day/night shifts and look after children!
Theyre paid well enough. Life unfortunately requires both parents to work, well if you want luxuries (holidays, social life, ‘best telly’) in life. "In your opinion, this is my opinion | |||

No idea what you are talking about but carry on. As for the rainbow, I use it to indicate I come in peace rather than an argumentative attitude that some people adopt on here. Have a lively day perhaps will work better | |||

"Hospice Staff Their volunteers. " They have a couple of volunteers usually but everyone else is paid. Carers and Home Carers are seriously underpaid. If you seen some of the places that people live in... It's not for the faint of heart. | |||

I sat in A&E with my Dad for 12hrs on Thursday/Friday. He was actually there for over 18hrs in A&E. The nursing staff were amazing, completely over worked and didn't stop moving/working once. That's a long wait. Is your dad ok?" Broken neck, broken nose, smashed face, after tripping up a pavement.

"I think carers and nursery staff. The most important groups of people - old, vulnerable and children , we seem to think there’s no need for decent pay." Are you suggesting that if we paid carers and nursery staff more money they would do a better job? I would argue that for carers at least (I don't have a lot of experience with early years care) the big issue in terms of the quality of care provided is being being understaffed. Decrease the workload for carers and yes, there would almost certainly be an improvement in care standards. Pay them more isn't going to change anything for 'the most important groups of people' If local councils suddenly upped the amount of money available per person for care I would far rather that be spent employing more people than paying the ones already in the job more. I also strongly disagree with the "most important" label. Most vulnerable maybe but your age doesn't make you more important though I suspect that isn't what you meant. Mr | |||

"I was an MOT Tester/Technician till last month, I've had enough the salarys a piss take I wish to god I'd never gone in to the fucking motor industry the whole trades fucked." I think the motor trade is about to experience a gigantic revolution, there is a shortage of high skilled techs ones who actually do the job, so the salaries of good ones is going to go up which the costs will be passed onto the customer. The other thing I can see happening is technicians will be more highly regarded in the dealerships than the previous gods, the car salesmen who in most cases are just order takers and more interested cruising around in a demonstrator than actually working. | |||

"Jobs mentioned on this list are low skilled which could be filled by any individual willing to take on the task also may are part-time so if people what to get out the trap get trained and up there aptitude and that not say be a good little work it means value your skill work for the person who pays the most as Company do not care about you also work longer hours I will not work a job that is not less than 50 hours week. Lot's of people under estimate value there skills potential and settle for mediocre and easy. Secondary teacher and anything from £40 to £60,000 a year Working away from the ranks of nursing used to be on £35k a year. Become a retail manager easily learn 45k + 50% bonus. Cleaning area manager 30k Secondary teachers outside of London start at £25k and max at £40k... The stress and hours that a teacher has to work is mental, there is a reason why so many people are leaving teaching. I have a friend who was so stressed and had so much marking she was in tears and thinking she couldn't take time off for Christmas dinner. She quit and is now a TA" Being from Ireland myself, it amazes me how poorly teachers are in gb. Longer hours, much lower pay, much shorter holidays. Teaching is much more highly valued in Ireland | |||

It’s not a question of discriminating between Ireland and England. I’m just asking which one you are referring to. The services in the country in which you live? (Ireland) . Or the services in another country (Britain).
I’m my experience, service levels and rewards vary massively between Britain and Ireland. For example, teachers are much more highly paid and valued in Ireland.
Labelling all public employees as lazy and incompetent, is, itself, lazy and unimaginative.
Happy to discuss this over a pint in mcswiggans next time I am in Galway
I'm referring to both Jimmy...you see I thought an Irishman in England might have understood given that you seem to have opinions on both. You don't seem to want to allow me the same kindness however.
Yeah either mcswiggans or sure maybe we'll go to the Argyll, wouldn't want you travelling too far.
In my experience Ireland is years behind England in terms of its public service institutions even though they are closely aligned for those who know your history.
Yeah I guess me labelling all those lazy incompetent people as such is the same as labelling everyone who doesn't want to take a covid vaccine as an antivaxxer but sure what goes around comes around eh Jimmy me auld flower "Yes I have expressed opinions on public servants in Ireland and England as I worked, lived and kid taxes in both countries for years. The services differ greatly, nhs in particular, but labelling them all as incompetent is just daft. For example, maternity hospitals in Dublin are among the best in the world, and doctors travel from all over the world to learn from them. But according to you, they are all incompetent. Your trolling might be more effective if you took a more nuanced approach. Slan | |||

"Can you all please stop feeding the trolls. Some people thrive on that and derailing a decent conversation. Their persistence means they can't even be excused for a temporary lack of judgement. No sorry. Some things I won’t tolerate. I’ve said my piece now.
Which part of the useless public sector do you work for again?"Because the public sector have done such a grand job when taking over private sector jobs? Just look at the G4s and serco run prisons for that answer. Yes SOME more senior civil servants are perhaps overpaid for what they do but in my personal experience the people on the ground work hard and are often doing the work of several people thanks to the dire understaffing which is caused mostly by the dreadful pay. And to go after the 'dancing nurses' during the pandemic is quite simply pathetic. | |||

"All of the ones where you work 37 hours a week and can’t afford to eat most nights. " Agree totally. It's criminal that we live in one of the richest countries and yet people are relying on handouts and food banks,etc.I heard some idiots comment on the radio just the other day, suggesting that people who rely on aid need to learn to budget properly ! The so called experts who run our country don't exactly shine in that department, do they ? | |||

"37 hours leave lots of time for other jobs unless you have kids " So much for the 1960's prediction that by the 21st century, we would all have far more leisure time. I am 62, and now work longer hours to survive that I did 30 years ago, and for relatively less money. | |||
