the minimum wage goes up every year,some are now fighting for a living wage(both of which i agree with),but do trained experienced people have to suffer?
-
i agree and didn't want to,i couldn't afford it. but a protest had to be done
-
dont see what your missing tigger,its high time public services were paid what they deserve,not be hit constantly
-
because my standard of living is constantly going down,i'm not well paid by any means. a public sector pay rise would feed the economy,the low paid get rises while i get poorer,i want better services but the money doesn't go on extra staff,ask yourself where the money goes,NOT on over streched schools,services and the NHS. SORT IT OUT CENTRAL GOVERNMENT

Options to move due to unsatisfactory home repairs
owlman1 replied to char2013's topic in Sheffield Property & Housing
i dont think you qualify for a move,think the most you can hope for is a decorating grant,the home doesnt belong to you and the council are doing the repairs,if you want to move you could buy your own house and pay for your own repairs,or private rent and wait forever for your repairs ,up to you -
its about time something was done,i live on a tram route and occasionally use it...but,i have to wait daily with hundreds of other vehicles(busses included) along the route,while a half empty tram(off peak)sails past. Hillsborough corner is a joke,I've seen trams snarl it up cutting off whole suburbs,i would love to see how huge the carbon footprint of all this trafic is. as for quick,middlewood to town tram 20 mins,bus 10 mins,middlewood to meadowhell a full 40 mins compared to 10 mins in a car, at rush hour you are lucky to get on one if its not at a terminus, BIN THE SUPERSCAM,GET SHEFFIELD MOVING AGAIN

Sheffield City Council is in talks to implement a so-called ‘living wage’ policy, ensuring it pays none of its staff less than £7.20 an hour. An internal city council document seen by Postcode Gazette says the council “proposes to introduce the living wage” to tackle low pay at an annual cost to the authority of around £70,000. The idea is to provide a higher minimum pay rate than the legal minimum wage of £6.18 an hour to reflect the higher costs of living in a city, taken from postcode gazette. giving the low paid a rise,yet the rest of us they want to take a pay drop(2 hours less work a week or 5 days unpaid leave),on top of no pay rise in 4 years,and an increment freeze,if we keep our jobs at all:mad:

SCC`s Policy On Fly Tipping.. What`s It Cost Us ?
owlman1 replied to Penistone999's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
why should council tax payers foot the bill for earning tradesmen to dump their waste,they can take it to a proper tipping site and pay for disposal,or get a skip,the skip company still have to pay to tip,or would you like the skip companies bankrupt aswell,imagine every man in a van/tradesman/building co. lined up at dumpit sites everyday,it would be an enourmous amount of waste at tax payers cost -
SCC`s Policy On Fly Tipping.. What`s It Cost Us ?
owlman1 replied to Penistone999's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
i really dont think a £5 levy is fair,it costs the council/kier/sheffield homes, around £100 per transit load in tipping fees at various sites -
Crookesmoor Tip and School Football Pitches
owlman1 replied to Tezden's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
the area on the otherside of oxford st used to be called the tip,probably a referance to when there was housing on the ponderosa area,the football pitch was made i think early 80s when i was at the school,but was nothing to do with the school.it was made by bringing in many tons of soil containing rocks and rubbish,as kids we used to dig in it collecting bottles,it is only good to play on now due to lots of us local lads playing on it and throwing any bricks and glass to the side,i remember the schoolrooms were burnt down around the same time(2 others on the corner of oxford and albion streets were removed to make a new playground),hope this helps -
