What Do I Do If My Work Don't Reply?

[abbeylee90]

I've sent the care home an email asking if I can change my days as my new job days were only available Monday yo Wednesday. What do I do they haven't replied to my email.

Abbey, that would be a shame - but I hope you realise much of this is of your own making? You're applying for part-time jobs and expecting employers (plural) to fit in with what suits you for now. If a full-time job came up, you'd probably leave the care home without a backward glance. Maybe you should put all your energy into finding one full-time position?

OK, I understand the care home would need notice if you decided to leave (how much ?) so you could try today phoning the new company re changing to Tues and Thurs. If that fails.....I don't know

Abbey it is you who is "messing" with your mental health. Take the new Monday to Wednesday job and show them you are enthusiastic, dependable employee by using your initiative and work hard. Resign from the care home and try a supermarket for Thursday to Sunday part time pre Christmas

[abbeylee90]

Can't work 7 days so I'm left with quit care ask cleaning company if I can change my days to Tuesday and Thursday or get a full time job elsewhere 

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, getting a full-time job seems the best option. As you've discovered, trying to fit in two 'bitty' jobs simply doesn't work.

Abbey/My advice - don't mess up what this new company has offered you. Have you received official notification of your appointment from them?

Good luck abbey, I wish you well in your quest for a suitable job x 

[cashier]

How will you be working seven days? Your new job is :onday, Tuesday and Wednesday, so you can't work at the care home on a Tuesday. No mention anywhere of working Saturday and Sunday.

[calmck]

Why change your days. It does not give a good impression if you want to change what was agreed before you even start. Work the three days you agreed, prove yourself and maybe you will be offered more hours. Or try to find temporary Xmas job for the end of the week

[abbeylee90]

That's fine I can do that but have to give notice.

[abbeylee90]

I'm due to start Monday 

[Hazlinny]

You did previously mention the date of your driving theory - when is it? Do you feel confident about this while you are considering your employment issues?

[abbeylee90]

No I failed 😔 

[Hazlinny]

Sorry to hear that Abbey though not totally surprised as you seem to spend so much time on Answerbank instead of swotting up. Better luck next time.

[abbeylee90]

I did revise some of the questions changed and passed the hazard perception 

[scorpiojo]

How many hours is the new job?

[abbeylee90]

21 per week 

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, did you tell the new place that you'd have to give notice in the care home? I'm worried that you'd just assumed you'd get your shifts changed! PS 21 hours a week  is definitely better than 9 - and fingers crossed that you like the new place, have no problems with the work or the bosses....

[abbeylee90]

I emailed them last week and got no response so that why I called them as it was getting closer

[abbeylee90]

Do I email the new job and say I need to give notice as now they saying they won't change my days as things changed yesterday like told me over the phone today.
