That would only work if all the other rates rose too. To introduce a sense of perspective, the SPO running the job I'm on at the moment is on about the same money as I was getting two years ago for changing the odd lock, cutting a bit of grass, rodding a drain once in a while, and with virtually no responsibility. The guy running that job, with a similar level of responsibility as an SPO was on double that wage, with company car thrown in.
I reserve the right to change my mind. It's called learning.
