Mick, don't do it!
First page of today's Guardian 'Society' section has a feature called 'What else can I do', in which people are given advice on alternative careers."Mick, 33, earns £300,000 a year as a senior trading standards officer with a local authority. He is looking to move on"
Mick! Don't move on. You won't do better. Ok, look at the options:
1. Move to small local authority as principal trading standards officer. A minimum of £35,000.
2. Sideways to another local authority with specialisation.
3. Specialist recruitmnet agency, annual income would 'soar' to £50,000
4. Food Standards Agency, who would match his current salary.
5. Consumer Direct, the Civil Service body, who would pay between £30,000 and £35,000.
Exactly. Mick should stay where he is with the highest paying local authority trading standards job in the world.
