I've not had a pay rise for several years which amounts to a pay cut given the effects of inflation and now to top it all off, HPE have increased the level of pensions contributions by 2.1% and the government has increased NI contributions by 1.4%, so net result is a pay cut in the region of 3.5%!

I really need to think about the future and whether trying to cling onto a job for which I am being paid less and less whilst being asked to do more and more is really in my best interests. Time for a spreadsheet me thinks. Of course coming up with an answer assumes that you know how long you will live. Crystal ball anyone?
