What Do I Do About My Other Job?

[abbeylee90]

I work in care home but my hours were cut there so I felt I needed another job to support me financially I got another job very quick in Home bargains but I'm not liking and feeling very tired all the time and not belonged there. Do I quit if my boss agrees to up my hours 

[newmodarmy]

So have you had the interview then, or was that just a preliminary telephone conversation with them?

[Hazlinny]

Things move very fast in your world, Abbey ...  I'd be frazzled to a crispy bacon crisp if I had to cope with all the things which happen around you .. how do you cope?   As a matter of interest, do you have any brothers/sisters?

[Abstract1]

After 242 contributions you must have some idea how to proceed.

[abbeylee90]

No interview tomorrow. My sisters lives miles from me

[newmodarmy]

I think abbey means her interview is tomorrow

[abbeylee90]

I just found my supervisor use to work where I'm going to tomorrow 😱

[abbeylee90]

Interview went OK don't know if I'll get as he didn't seem happy with my availability but said will call other care homes and ring me tomorrow 

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, glad the interview went OK. I'm surprised about your availability - I thought you were hoping for full-time hours, hoping to get awayfrom Home Bargains? 

PS Why is he ringing other care homes?

[naomi24]

Oh Abbey!  Why did you tell them your availability is limited?  You're a single girl with no commitments so there's no reason you can't be available to do a proper full-time job.  Honestly!  You're your own worst enemy at times!

[Floko]

Good luck Abbey.

Are you in HB today ?

[abbeylee90]

Well I said I can do Saturday but got commitments Sunday. My current job is flexible.

[naomi24]

What commitments do you have on Sundays?

[abbeylee90]

To see if they happy with my availability. 

One cleaner in the care home has quit or got fired so they do need me really.

[abbeylee90]

Volunteer 

[naomi24]

Oh, your dog walking.  Okay.

[THECORBYLOON]

Why is a few hours of voluntarily walking dogs on Sundays more important to you than paid employment?

[abbeylee90]

Well neede a day off use to in McDonald's wasn't an issue 

[abbeylee90]

Like I said my supervisor worked there she does Monday to Friday 

[calmck]

Abbey A care home is open 24/7 all year. I am sure you will get days off every week but weekends still need staff. Why should you have every Sunday off. Imagine if hospital staff all wanted Sunda off

[Hazlinny]

Have you been to HB today or are you about to start your shift, Abbey?  Availability at Care Home - most workers are on a rota system so work round it, never mind about social events.
