i left home at 14 and worked 7 days a week in a stable starting at 4 am , last job 9.00pm. we had 1 afternoon off a fortnight and got 20 bucks a week plus board. Not really interested in what some snotty nosed kid thinks about fair. the year was 1975, I would recommend being out working rather than shooting a breeze on the internet. You will get loading for sunday, no overtime rates in Agriculture or farm work in those days, just the normal 40 hours pay for 70 to 80 hours work a week. You have a choice, moan or work.

if we all had attitudes like yours we’d officially be third world
