"Yep. I think by 4%. I can't remember exactly. "
I had a 10% pay rise this year, but given that inflation over the same year has been *more* than 11% (with grocery inflation hitting 17%+ and energy something like 80%) … even that’s still equivalent to a pay cut. |

Crumbs. The pay rise proposed by our employer is worth 4.5% to me. Fuck that  |

"Everything is always going up for me. It's the effect I have on men.
I’m glad you made this joke so I don’t need to."
First thing I thought of after reading the title. I’m ashamed of myself : ( |

"I could do with more things going up my butt
I'm super lucky. My boss hasn't gone more than about 6 weeks without giving me a raise for the past year, so my wages are keeping ahead of the curve."
Happy to put my foot up it anytime  |

Have you seen Morrisons sell boxes of wonky & past best before dated fruit/veg very cheaply. Also here we have a discount supermarket thingy where local supermarkets donate food (fresh included) that's either surplus, or wonky or past best before. It's also very cheap. |
