Hourly Pay

Had a trawl through a few agency's looking at what's available and it seems that slim pickings are on the cards. One major thing that surprised me (or not) is how much the agency is willing to pay the driver. Last year I was earning £9.00ph for Class2 work and now that is the hourly wage for Class1. As there are few jobs about I suppose any wage is better than none but such low hourly rate can only lead to the driver getting disheartened and thinking how much work he's putting in driving a large and expensive vehicle and the amount that he/she will be taking home at the end of the week. Lets hope that things really do improve and it happens soon.................
