Do I Take This Job?

[abbeylee90]

I been offered a job as a cleaner in a school 20 hours per week Monday to Friday 20 hours per week.

[abbeylee90]

Hi yes been offered induction and had interview last week.

[Redhelen72]

So you didn't get the school cleaning job?

[abbeylee90]

Yes I did haven't signed contract yet tho

[Redhelen72]

I am confused - if you DID NOT get the school cleaning job - why are you signing a contract?

[Redhelen72]

Sorry very confused here - I think its the reponses

Did you get the cleaning job?

 

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, I'm getting baffled now! Are you going to give up the part-time cleaning job to take up a different part-time cleaning job(in the school) with even less hours? That seems... less than ideal!

[Moorea7]

Abbey, it would be easier if you address the person who asks you a question when you reply e.g.  Redhelen .. then answer.

[newmodarmy]

I think Abbey meant she didn't 'apply for the cleaner job, she was just allocated to the slot by her agency.

[Redhelen72]

Newmodarmy, I think this is part of the problem is that people feel they need to answer for Abbey and explain what Abbey means or needs when they don't really know themselves.

Perhaps Abbey can consider who she is addressing in the future.

[MargoTester]

..........or start thinking for herself

[newmodarmy]

So you want me to shut up redhelen. 

[newmodarmy]

Her writing is so garbled and lacking in punctuation (despite her doing so well at GCSE English and staying in education to age of 21)  that I don't think adding the name of the poster to whom she is replying, would make much difference .

[Redhelen72]

lol no newmodarmy.

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, the previous two cleaning jobs haven't worked out at all well - are you sure it's the 'career' for you?

[scorpiojo]

Have you left the laundry job?

[Redhelen72]

Abbey, following on from Newmodarmy - have you got a dr's appointment yet?

Perhaps it would be helpful to list down what you want to achieve this year and then put a star beside each one that is achievable.

ie. make a doctors appointment - achievable

climb mount everest - not achievable

It may help you with a bit of focus

Wouldn't it be better to stay at laundry doing 21 hours over 3 days than to do cleaning job in school doing same 21  hours but working 5 days a week? I would rather have the extra days off with laundry. Sounds like pay will be exactly same. 

Plus doing the longer hours at laundry is better preparation for a full time job.

[abbeylee90]

Yes it is through an agency and I got an interview on Thursday for the Production Administrator not sure what I'd do about that but it more hours 

[Redhelen72]

Abbeylee the interview on thursday is that the one that you posted the job description for last week?

The one that appeared to require you to have knowledge of the systems and the area of work?

[abbeylee90]

Yes
