Hi guys,
After someone recommended this on a previous post I have had a peek.
I was toying with the idea of going bk to my high stress, target driven role of a n employement advisor in Feb. Could cry at the thought of it.
Hadthought of going self employed but didnt fancy the risk on a 'not so guarenteed' wage each month.
So my mum suggested I ask my union rep to help me pen a letter asking to be considered for an admin post. Now this is not guarenteed tobe accepted by my employer but as an investors in people company I think they have to consider my flexible working request right?
The admin roles are a sinch, 7k less, granted, however when I put hubby and my 'admin' wage in entitled to it has produced a result I LIKE!!!!
Basically - to do a less stressful job, 3 days a week would work out the same wage as the Advisory job 3 days a week. Cus by taking a pay cut we'd be entitled to £100 a week in benefits!!!!!!!!! Working tac credit n child tax credit.
Now im not a fan of the benefit system, having spent the last 6 years helping the dregs of society find work, only to quit or smack the manager in their first week.
But I sort of figure after paying into the tax system for the last 16 years I deserve something back and if it means I can do a less stressful job and be with Austin 4 days out of 7 why not!!!
Does anyone have experience of claiming working tax or child tax. Do u start getting it pretty much straight away or are they a pain? And do you have to claim them at the end of the year or something ridiculous?

I be silly to do 3 days in a horrid job for the same money
