On The Run

Chapter 2 - Tom Wilson

Tom Wilson was once a nice untroubled steamfitter he was making £19.00 an hour which calculates to £1,064 a week, and if you ask me that isn't too shabby, i mean cmon the guys making £55,320 a year and i'll tell you what that's more than most of these lazy ass cowards do, most people are comfortable to just sit on their backside all day and eat rainbow cookies or whatever sh*t they want. But anyway enough boasting about Tom let's get onto why he became a prisoner

Tom had a good life, he was earning a lot and he was able to stay alive so he was thankful, but one day that all changed. He suddenly lost his job due to a customers complaint, Tom had made a mistake while trying to fix the customers pipe and he thought it was fixed but he was wrong and boy did he pay the price? He just didn't completely understand why he was fired for such a small mistake. Tom had always hated his manager but this had just broke the ice. Tom had around £3,000 in his bank, now that may not seem too bad but including his insurance, electric, bills, rent, internet bill and water bills  £3,000 would not cut it. Obviously this was all stressing him out.

He slowly stopped being able to afford his insurance so he ended up having to sell his car, then he couldn't afford the electric then the water and it was a miserable time of Tom's life, he applied for many jobs but no luck because they thought he was uneducated on the topic because of one small mistake. and after 2 weeks he had his rent coming up in 2 days, he was anxious he knew he wouldn't have enough money and they wouldn't understand at all, they never do.
