Yep and I just turned on my phone and my boss at the chemist has left a voicemail asking if I can work this afternoon. Feel as though I should do as I didn't work Monday because thats when I felt really ill and thought I was going to pass out. I am nearly 19 and I get paid under £5 an hour which is rubbish. It hardly seems worth it. I really need the money though but it upsets me so much when I work at the chemist now. He is so overstaffed - I would go in this afternoon into a tiny chemist and there will be at least 3 people working there and the delivery driver!
 
thats a dreadful wage! I stioll remember getting 3.20 when I was 18, rubbish isnt it!
just keep looking and looking I am sure something will come up! I tell you what LOL, when I open my pet boarding in a few years you can come work for me LOL.
I am looking for a job too. are you going to go in this afternoon then?
 
Nope, I will make out I never turned on my fone and got the message lol. I am working tomorrow morning 9 - 1. This afternoon I am going the Job Centre to try and get signed onto Jobseekers for now cos I only work 8 hours a week. On the Job Centres website it says you can get £44.50 a week if you do less than 16 hours which I do. Yay. I hate it when I see people who come in the chemist and they have been on it for years. I don't want to be seen as sponging off the state but I have paid NI e.t.c. I just need some money!
 
I just rang up the number the Job Centre got me and they said it said on the comp I wasn't eligable for it but she said she has put down that I am and they will ring me up on Monday for my bank details.
She also said would I like it to start from today the Jobseekers and I said that I finished my last exam on 10th Jan and so really from then I have only been working 8 hours a week. She then said I should have rang up as soon as I finished college but I said I didn't know I could claim for it as I am working but only a small number of hours so hopefully I will get some back pay too! :)

I am just so desperate for money at the moment :(
 
I am so sorry to hear about your current job :( I can't believe that you don't even get paid £5 an hour, that is disgusting >:( I hope that Aldi gets back to you very soon and that you manage to get something with them for now. At least if you can sort out the Jobseekers allowance that will help too :) and they had better backdate it to the 10th January otherwise I'm sending round my heaviest piggy mob to sort 'them out ;D

I have got work 9 - 1 today and I really am not looking forward to it. I am working with 1 of the newer ladies that bosses me around so much making out she is the one who has been there for three years - not me!

Yesterday I was so annoyed with my boss. I was checking dates in the shop cos none of the new ladies have bothered to do it and there was about 2 people in the shop and the new lady was serving them. My boss called me over and asked me to stand with Sylvia between 3 and 4 because it was going to get busy (yeah right!) Two mins later I didn't know Sylvia was and I turned around and she was helping the lady in the dispensary put an order away when I had just been told to stand WITH her. My boss doesn't say anything to her at all. Later on I went to check the dates again and he asked me to stand back at the till. Thats all he does all the friken time - even when nobody is in the shop. I think he treats me like this because I am the youngest but still I am not a child who has only recentely started there! I been there THREE years! Grrr... I bet any money that when I go in this morning I will be asked to do the hoovering. All thinki of me standing at a till with no-one there :(
