Minimum wage?

Posted by: Steeve on 25 October 2007

I know privatisation of public service jobs has driven down wages, but this is ridiculous!

Presumably spelling isn't one of the essential criteria for working in the department either!

Very funny! The Grauniad is famous, but I thought its glory days [in typo terms] were over!

Reminds me of the [probably apocryphal] story of the steel magnate who received an apologetic letter from the very expensive school where he sent his two daughters, stating that the fees would have to rise for the new academic year, by an unfortunately large amount per anum.

He wrote back that he had no issue at all paying through the nose for his daughters' education, but drew the line at paying through the bottom!

Thanks George I'd wondered about a way to use that potential confusion for some time. Anus horribilis, anyone?

No, I thought not...
