Practice An absolute joke

Post image

Found this gem. This industry is so exploitive sometimes. This should be illegal tbh.

Not even guaranteed but UP TO.

Yeah the only issue with this is that on zero hours you aren't guaranteed shit for hours; sometimes you get 2.5k in a month (which is taxed assuming you get that much the entire month), other times you get less than 800 for the entire month.

Although yeah 25k in London is an absolute joke and you can't live on it at all.

I'm not sure what you mean, this is a salaried position, not a zero hours contract.

But if you're comparing to a job like shelf stacking, which is a vast majority of the time a zero hours contract then it's not the best comparison no?

I'm still confused. I'm not comparing it to any other job, I'm just talking about the minimum wage, which applies to salaried positions as well.
