If you've got a family and rent/mortgage to pay you can no longer
afford to have a job in construction (for example)

I thought plumbers were paid quite well.

I was talking more building sites.

New buildings need plumbing too.

You know what I mean. Digger operators, brickies, concrete layers etc.

But plumbers, electricians etc are also required.

Waitrose, Tesco and Sainsburys have entirely white English staff as far
as I can tell. Although the most usual language you'll hear from
customers, in Tesco at least, is Polish.

Probably depends on the locale.

Out in the fens.
