I have genuinely reached the point where I can't afford to stay in without lifestyle changes I'm not willing to make. My wage is worth so much less than it was 5 years ago yet my workload has increased to such an extent I'm no longer willing to ask my family to make the financial sacrifices that come with Service life.
I know I'm not badly paid but having no control over my salary and no independent body to fight for me has seen me say "enough".
