i am gonna be heading back to uni part time in september so only gonna be working 3 days a week. when you can make 200 a day if you work hard, i dont see any point in working 5 days a week unless you have a big family and/or feel the need to show everyone how rich you are with a fancy car
I have to keep my hours down to get maximum child tax credits, job seekers allowance and walk with a limp to get my disability benefits. On the weekend I look after my mum so that boosts my pay with the carers allowance. I brake really hard at roundabouts these days too - I've made a fortune with whiplash claims.
My schedule at the minute is to smash most of my work mon-wed , thursday off and finish any left overs friday morningSeems to be working ok, i can do 3 biggish days though now im wfp and i have some early morning comercial thrown in the mix tooAlthough i quoted a big house at weekend which will throw a spanner in the works as its a days work so will have to have one of my thursdays in there I reckon a good mix between 3-4 hard days work and a day off is great if you can afford itI have never been a fan of 5 days work, maybe im inherently lazy
