What Do I Do?

[abbeylee90]

I'm really struggling financially and don't get paid till next Friday. How do I get money?

[Canary42]

You're being scammed IMHO. Tell them to fork off.

and, being totally honest with yourself, no starry-eyed dreaming, do you really think you could handle a fork lift truck ?

[abbeylee90]

I'm doing my best just really need a job

[Hazlinny]

17.05 ..That was just an example ... there is a local course here at the place where learner HGV drivers go.

[abbeylee90]

I got told it was easier than driving a car.

Will see if I do get the job

Abbey, you are all over the place with your job/career searches. I don't know who is giving you advice...but it's rubbish so far. Career advisors wouldn't/shouldn't  be sending you on a forklift training course...that is just madness. And you've got to realise your own limitations. Otherwise you'll go on this totally inappropriate course...not do well...and feel more of a failure. Do jobs you are capable of!

[abbeylee90]

Pasta thanks will leave it at that for now and see how HB goes however I prefer warehouse anyway

[abbeylee90]

I've sold stuff on vinted

[lankeela]

Good, that should give you some cash but don't go and blow it on food/drinks out or more tops.  Pay who you owe first then see if you have any left.

//// I got told it was easier than driving a car.////

 

Who told you that?  The person trying to get ££££s out of you for the course no doubt.

Please take more care as to who you listen to, avoid folk with a vested intrest.

[abbeylee90]

No someone I use to work withb

[Canary42]

OK, Sorry.

Most of the forklift drivers I've met in my long life have not been the sharpest knives in the drawer. It's a responsible job but not beyond the capabilities of the average human.

Newmodarmy 16.30  I have deep doubts that Abbey got a A grade GCSE English.  It's a good while since I was an examiner, but, just 'no'.  She's got a bit muddled about it I think.

Abbey - I'm glad you've started to straighten things out.  Keep with it.  Just don't spend money you don't have.

[abbeylee90]

I'll save now for brunch on 17th

[abbeylee90]

Is it right to struggle on part time hours?

[Prudie]

As an ex-teacher myself I agree with Jourdain, I don't believe for a second Abbey got a top grade in English GCSE but to be fair I don't think she has ever said she did. It was an assumption on the part of other posters.

[Hazlinny]

18.30 Jourdain - I get baffled by Abbey's inability to communicate at a Grade A English level but, if you think about, it would be quite easy for an educated person to type in a rubbish way.  Is that what this is all about?
