Worst are yet to come

[benb]

I must admit right now I am having a hard time as the pounds is so weak to peso. I have a mortage in the Phils, Im sending monthly to my parents and I have personal loans here in UK. I am just glad that I can still work 60 hours/week atleast.

how can you be glad to work 60hrs/week? Be careful as your health is equally important. Generally you should not do more than 48hrs/week on average.

I've read before years ago that prolonged stress due to work etc can reduce an average lifespan by 7 years.

Agreed and I think Both of us would wish everyone work fewer hours but I guess in Cheesewhizz postion she is grateful for the hours.
The stress if she earned less due to her situation would proabaly take more than 7 years of her life



Sadly both Labour and Tories (lets say the establishment) have played there part to make hourly rates still a common part of many peoples lifes especially those with less choices suchs as those on working visa and in certain career paths.

Very true about the light at the end of the tunnel

I think the Royal mail and the goverment are working at helping you in this department from what my Local postie says.

It is true that Royal Mail is in trouble..I work for a branch of Royal Mail that does courier work only..I get out and about all over the place! But anyway, we're also in difficulty..we're working at a loss..there might be voluntary redundancies..but it's thought that our particular branch of Royal Mail has great potential..so it will staying in business for at least 15 months I've been told..

Hopefully be fine Sir. If the Royal mail stoped the work it did people would notice how complicated,expensive and hard it would be to send a letter to smaller towns and villages.
