The bad news: pay award "unlikely" to be paid before March 2014.

The good news: when paid, will be backdated to 1 July 2013.

What's this pay award thing? I've not had rise for 2 or 3 years..

That's nice. My pay award might buy me an extra coffee each week.

We've already been braced for the worst. Our boss told us he tried to fight with management for 3%, but was told industry average is 1%!

It does go without saying I'm not counting chickens (or spoke ratios) until they hatch!

Yebbut stu, we have a re-organisation coming at this firm so you or I might have a long vacation coming up!
