So if you get in a Boots store, and travel say 50 miles each way, you can earn £275 + £40 = £315. Also some of their stores don't even do prescriptions - take a good book.
Mostly with a bit of travel, other companies pay about £225 to £250 per day. |
I'm obviously live in the wrong place. I tried to put my locum rates up to £23 and my mileage to 30p as a protest at the wrk put on us by the new contract and I didn't even get a reply let alone the pay rise!
