I’ve just seen a job in the industry advertised at £22k in London and I really would LOVE to see the senior teams at these places try to survive on that during a rental and cost of living crisis without a wealthy family or support system to supplement their income

It really is a joy to love your job, but a privilege too. Growing up, a job was a way to survive, even if the job itself wasn’t nice. I never for a second imagined I would have the chance to do something I genuinely love doing for five days a week, and I couldn’t be happier❤️
