But then you don’t need to pay tax and you can get social benefits on top

@Mona86 sadly I still pay tax and don't get benifits

Oh why not?@Fafnir252

@Mona86 I earn enough to pay tax and therefore earn enough to not receive benifits.
I work in a care home as do 36 to 60 hours a week

That’s why you pay tax and don’t get benefits cause, you earn too much cause your hours are too much therefore get enough @Fafnir252

@Mona86 yeah exactly but for the work that I have to do and the hours I only get. Minimum wage

Yeah but you do more hours you can choose to work less@Fafnir252 hours and pay little to no tax and receive benefits, you’re choosing to make your life more difficult

@Mona86 not really lol I'm. Contracted to do 36 hours minimum and I don't want to be on benifits. I enjoy working judt think for all the work carers do we get to little pay
