Wth? £10. When i can be bothered to work i make £15 an hour
Around 10 hours, but it's really easy, we just had a hectic day today and I'm sure it'll be calmer on Monday.

Exactly.
Besides it's not hard work, most of it is sitting around for someone to say ''YO PUPRULE, FIEL THESE STUFF YO'' or ''coffeeee pls''

Why on earth would you work for a tenner a day? I think 6.03 an hour, my wage, is still pretty low for the **** that I have to put up with from customers.
Didn't work today, didn't need me.

You shouldnt be allowed to work 10 hours?
what like company is it for, you could sue them for that.
I'm 16, and i'm only allowed to work 9 hour shifts if they give me an hour lunch, and thirty minute breaks.
So unless you're getting about 2 Hours worth of breaks, i cant see it happening legally.

i'm under 16, and not employed by the place i work.
i don't have shifts.
i show up at a certain time, & finish when i like.
ha.
there's no breaks really though, just chill out when it aint busy & that.

wth
id work for £10 a day pmsl
£1 an hour is terrible, you could make more from busking.
It's an Abestos Equipment and Supplies office, it's like just sitting around all day, filing a bit, making cups of tea and occasionally sweeping the floor. It gets me out of the house and besides at LEAST it pays.

oh the joys of child labour!
Was going to get paid £30 tommorow because I worked overtime on my first day, turns out I'm actually only getting £8 a day...
Oh well, the joys of being helpful
