I know what your saying....me and the Mrs were talking about the same thing as she has a home care company. I'd love to know the finances of the care homes as what you say is very true.....but the bloke I'm talking about certainly isn't a millionaire and always claims it's a labour of love rather than making the money you would think he does. Obviously he wouldn't tell me honestly how much he makes but reckons it's quite tight. I don't know so obviously can't defend it or argue. 

The Mrs biggest struggle is finding English care staff as she won't employ the others.

It’s really sad mate good English birds in the home spend there own money on residents go way beyond there pay grade and get payed £11.50 an hour cleaners in Aldi £14 the home owner also gets money to sponsor the Indians etc they have to sign a 3 year contract so he shits on the brits to import more from abroad and make more profit it really is a terrible industry hopefully your mate is one of the few that gives a bit back

And I thought that only happened in the care home the wife work's in that's owned by an Indian and even to the point that he's bullied English workers there to the point some have left and it got bad at one stage a number of English staff got together to have a meeting with the threat of taking it further he soon stopped what looked like he was trying to force all the English staff to leave.
