You're right: seven pounds times thirty five hours times forty-six weeks is just over 11 grand. Wonder if the job's still open? Presumably your assistants get sick pay, pensions, sick pay, maternity, etc?

Tony,
Where do you get the £10k from? My library assistants currently start on
£6.94 per hour which equates to £13,344 annually. Admittedly they get paid holiday. But even if they didn't, they would still be on over £12k. By the way, that's based on our full time week of 37 hours.

As it happens, I know that the person who supervises the National Gallery security staff on Sundays get seven pounds an hour. Now that is rubbish money (>£10,000/year with no holiday pay or benefits) and 30 dozing casuals between you and the first item on the news. A friend of mine who is a security guard and was a bit short of money looked at it a while ago and decided he wasn't that short.

How about some press releases? Graduate Librarians expected to live on a quarter of the salary of a toilet cleaner at National Gallery - - and I get given a brush says toilet cleaner .
