Thankyou everyone.
AFAIK saddler falls under some miscellaneous and obscure category and I cannot find which one it is lol. But award wage is really not the point. I need to get $25 P/h to justify going back to employment. If it was up to me, I would do it for $20, just so I dont have to run my own business and deal with all of the hassles and petty grievences (sp) that it brings. But the reality is that it would not be fair to DH to have to take up the slack financially just because I have a hatred of paperwork, postage and customer relations lol.
I am just longing for the simplicity of leaving work at work and knowing how much $ will be in my acc at the end of the week.
I guess I just wanted to hear that $25 p/h for skilled labour was reasonable. Last time I had a "proper"job (18 yrs ago) I think I was on about $14.50 p/h
Now to find someone who wants me......
