We are all lucky to have jobs.....

.........but Employment in Ireland has became a torrid affair for those in the middle and the bottom. I'm glad i'm not unemployed but some employers are taking the total pss. Workloads that require working through brakes, after a shift and still no thanks. If anything they expect more done and higher standards. Oh and not replaceing staff when they leave. Sick of it now. I'm working for no sole trader either.
Taxs are cutting me down to the pay packet and it aint going to get better is it. My car tax is gone up, they want to charge me for using my computer and the 2 cent rise in my petrol costs turned out to be ten cent. who ya reckon is going to pay this household charge, me the tenant... it will stream to eventually.

I'll leave a job behind me if i leave this country but the reason i do it aint going to be cause I want to leave my home soil.

But Steve Jobs died.

Also "working through brakes"? Yee may need an NCT.

I have to say, the previous 2 replies are trying to come across as witty. But really they come across as ****e. Typical after hours posters.

Awwwwww somebody needs a hug. C'mere. Cheer up. It might never happen. I mean they're a good band and their music means so much to the young people today.

Well take the lead Rambo. Do something other than whine and cry. You think posts aren't up to scratch? Make a good one. Contribute something.

I'll take the hug. Buy you a pint. Maybe even friends. Just hate people trying to be clever.

Not trying to be anything. You're the one taking some personal vendetta against my posts.

Does it make you feel inadequate?

When you leave Ireland you'll quickly realise that it's like that everywhere, and for a huge number of people it was like that before any recession hit.

How can it be personal? No vendetta. The opening poster posted his thoughts. All valid. You made fun of him. I defended him. Absolutely nothing personal. You could be the greatest person alive. However this after hours.

The only reason people emigrate is because they wish to/want to expand their horizons.
It's ridiculous to think that anyone would have reason to, otherwise.
Didn't Michael Noonan make that clear, recently?
Don't you people listen?

Count yourself lucky you have a job

Ireland has unfortunately become an abysmal place for most people who are working for the reasons you have outlined.

It seems almost every single employer enforces the 'You're lucky to have a job' bull****, working staff into the ground, pay freezes or cuts etc.
