Do you feel the credit crunch?

[flomike]

while at the bank this afternoon to send some money back home (no chioce) I saw the filipina a wife of one of the filipino linemen who just arrived here a year ago (she just arrive 5 months ago on a dependant visa). We had a bit of chat then I mentioned to her do you feel the credit crunch here in UK and I said it looks like UK is into recessesion now. Well, she said to me what do you mean or what's that it mean? To be honest we filipinos may be don't understand that words bec all our life back to Phils we feel the recessesion or credit crunch all the time Anyway, according to the gossip thru the linemens driking session mates they earned £4k/month which is really big so I don't think they will get affected by the credit crunch by the sounds of it

I wish my husband is a lineman too so I'll just sit at home

If there is big pay and a local can do the job be prepared to see visas dissapear.

sounds on the high side, i think if it was 4000 usd then maybe, my misses brother in law is a ships mate, and earns that type of money, but there's a big price to pay, he only sees his wife and kids 3 months of the year and your virtually working 24hrs aday

can't be true can be true either. That's one thing about their job it is very risky, rain or shine, windy, frost and snowy they're on the go all the time. They said actually that their job is really really hard.
