[QUOTE="Steve3948, post: 338806, member: 2497"] Back in the 80's when working out of town, the OTA we got I think was £6 per day, had to be on site the same time as everyone else and leave at the same time everyone else. When staying in digs we had a return train fare once a month on top of the £6 per day, you were only expected to return home once a month. I expect its all changed now, but when traveling daily and sharing a car each day with 3/4 others, you drove once a week and got £30 per week which was good in those days. When staying in digs the money covered the digs plus a small meal, providing you were car sharing the rail fare was an added bonus, you also got 12 hours per day for working until 6pm, so a good monthly wage. Good days, but could not do it now. [/QUOTE]
