Can’t afford to live, get shouted at by callers irrelevant to my role each day just cos I am at a phone, can’t work from home despite the whole organisation doing so, higher paid people throw their workload at me cos they don’t want to do it.
Feels no different from when i was in the private sector really.
I can afford to eat. But I can’t afford housing and any enjoyment comes with guilt from knowing itll have a knock on effect to my finances. I’m living with a parent (who similarly struggles to pay bills)
It’s more a case of finding it hard to hit the bills and not being able to see a future where I’m comfortable.
I’d say it’s mostly due to the cost of living rather than the pay. 10 years ago I’d be doing quite well, but the pay grades haven’t changed to meet inflation or accommodate for the high cost of living.
I have a public service job.

No offense due but I hope you’re interviewing
Looking, not much on the market right now, but it’s a process I suppose!
At what quality of life?
I find it hard to believe you have a public service job that can’t pay for your peanut butter sandwiches and vegetables to stay alive.
The wording was a tad dramatic.
