+1 what mogrim is implying
Slightly narked by what TJ is saying. Here’s why, the receptionist here is on waaaay less than me and yet because she claims an element of tax credit she now lives in a rather nice council house (no really, it’s nice) she has a council man to come and fix everything in her house and huuughely discounted rates, her rent is next to flip all, she qualifies for cool stuff like leisure keys, has free cavity wall insulation and solar panels, and her kid is on a short list for a bursary for a school that I could never afford and my kids won’t qualify for.
She’s not playing the system in any way but has far more disposable income than me’n’wife who both work full time.
I know over time it’ll probably all come out in the wash but for now it seems mental that she’s better off than me.
jealous? me??
