How much was your first monthly salary/wage - after tax. And I mean your first proper job.

Mine was £350 per month. I was only 20 and this was 1989 - thought I’d won the jackpot.

Mine was about 440 quid in 97. Was a kitchen aid in a nursing home. 11 1/2 hour days 7.30 till 7.

I think about it now it probably wasn't legal at 16 y/o.

I enjoyed being mothered by the nurses and grandmothered by the residents

The bog can be a miserable place, from what I remember, biting cold, getting eaten alive by the flies and the lunch boxes filled with sambos that seemed to be bottomless. And the flasks of tea. Thinking about it, it wasn’t all bad

My uncle had me and the brothers help on the farm for £2 a week each. Every friday he gave us a choice. "I could give you £2... or.. I could drive into town and RENT TERMINATOR 2!!!!!"

He made it sound so exciting we never picked the money, and he always stuck on Terminator 2 which he had recorded off RTE. Con artist! Haha
