Buddy I'm kinda feeling your pain, Im currantly in a job that I feel that I am 
too experienced for!  Dont get me wrong I absolutly love the job and the 
crowd, the only problem is the money, Im just not getting what I deserve, over 
qualified for they pay they are offering!

I am never one to follow money, job satisfaction for me is more important as 
long as Im not being taken for a mug, if its money Im after, I have my own 
business thats can secure that, but I just love the Bar scene as a side line 
and for the social experience it offers!

Here in the UK, unless you are really lucky you are never going to be rich 
working the drinks industry, so you really have to have a passion for it, its 
not going to make you wealthy, I got my job by being over experienced in 
knowledge but not so much in practicality, so I took the job to progress 
myself but now I feel I might be being taken advantage of, gonna be chatting 
to my manager tomorrow about a wage increase, purely on the grounds that its 
what i deserve, I'll let you know how it goes!

Cheers

Russ
