[abbeyleigh]

I have been working in my job for a month but didn't want to tell people incase it don't work out.

[bednobs]

im really confused. if you dont want to tell people, why do ypu need advice about how to tell people?

[Hopkirk]

You've managed a whole month?!

[abbeyleigh]

I mean I didn't want to till I was settled incase it didn't work out

[jazzgirl]

Just tell them what you have just told us .

Just tell them that you didn't want to tell anyone until you had settled in.

Hi Patsy x

[Hazlinny]

So sorry - wrong thread. ^^^

[Peter Pedant]

I think it fits in an AB zany way.
what about

"I have a new job!"

[lankeela]

I wouldn't bother, you probably won't be there long before moving on anyway so might as well leave it till you've got another job.

[wolf63]

Which job is this? I thought that you got a job at a Dentist.

[scorpiojo]

Is this still the warehouse job?

[abbeyleigh]

In a warehouse yes

[tomus42]

Tell them you've got a new job but you're not sure if it will work out.

[abbeyleigh]

It should do been there just over a month

Hi abbey. I guess it depends on 2 things really.
1. How much you value the opinions of your friends. Have any of them said the job won't last or criticised it in any way?
2. How you are enjoying your job and coping with the workload and colleagues. If your supervisor is happy with your performance do you think you will be happy to stay there?
If you can answer those points positively I would say tell your friends you were settling in and happy to work there. Well done and good luck :)

[abbeyleigh]

I do value opinions from friends.
I'm getting on well with my colleagues and boss but big boss is hit and miss I've only had 1 review. Thamk you

[choux]

Whoops, just realised you said friend and not friends, please read my reply in the singular, sorry.

[choux]

You could ask your boss for extra feedback and say you are enjoying the job.

[abbeyleigh]

My boss has given good feedback and but manager hasn't said anything

[choux]

The manager should respect the normal chain of command and accept the good review given by your boss. I suspect you have a reservation about the manager? Just be polite when you speak to him/her, good morning/afternoon and a simple smile, answer any of their questions as simply as possible.
