What Do I Do About This Job?

[abbeylee90]

Sorry I know I got a thread about this but won't let me reply anymore. At the moment I'm really in doubt got loads of pros and cons 

[abbeylee90]

It's run smoothly for now or not bothered me but there are toxic people for example the deputy manager mainly.

[jourdain2]

Abbeylee - I think we've all run out of advice, quite frankly.

You either want a full time job - or you don't.

ALL jobs carry problems and disadvantages . There is  NO perfect job that doesn't carry challenges with it.  You MUST understand that.

You remind me of my useless grandson, who is too scared to go to school - because he hasn't done the work for the past few years and is therefore destined to fail.  I don't have  much time for him now (although he had a lot of support at first).

Accept that you'll never get a 'proper job' and stick with piddling about with temp. hours - or (and here's an idea) 'stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood' and throw yourself wholeheartedly into a new job with decent pay and hours - and change yourself to suit it.

Best I can do rightnow.  Will you read and act on it?

Jourdain2. //Best I can do right now.  Will you read and act on it?//

I think we all know the answer to that.

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, it's maybe running  smoothly for now because you're working only 10 hours a week! Your troubles increase when your hours do, I am not sure you are cut out for full-time work. 

[newmodarmy]

I think you've got used to working  just 2 hours a day and would find it too hard to work full time at anything. I bet even 4 hours a day would be too much for you now.

 Abbey  is looking for a job where she has no pressures, can take time off when she wants to socialise, can wear whatever she likes, do whatever she likes, and never have to answer to anyone.  As a bonus, she wants good hours and good pay. 

Unfortunately such a job does not exist, except in Abbey's imagination.

 

[Madgeorge]

Even then she wouldn't be able to decide if she wanted the job or not.

[abbeylee90]

No that's not the case. I don't care of its minium wage. I've been told now by another colleuge star where I am for now unless my mental health is taking its toll.

[Madgeorge]

Is it?

[abbeylee90]

Selco No

[naomi24]

Have you decided not to take the new job, abbey?

[abbeylee90]

I think so

[pastafreak]

So it's 10 hours a week for the foreseeable future? There's not likely to be much in the way of permanent jobs until after Christmas. There will be temporary positions though...but you'd have to be quick.

[naomi24]

Don't forget to ring them and tell them, abbey.  Today would be best.  They need to find someone else.  You'll feel better once you've done it.

[MargoTester]

So after going on and on about a full time job you've been offered one and don't want it. I really don't understand you. Your parents must be subsidising you or you would not be able to afford the lifestyle you seem to have.

[abbeylee90]

Its a new store and nothing was advertised of what it was all about.

[DDIL]

That's why at the interview they ask if you have any questions!

[bednobs]

Eh? It's a shop. It sells things. 

[naomi24]

It doesn't matter, abbey.  You're not taking it - but you must ring and tell them.  That's only fair.

[abbeylee90]

Because they went through it with it with me.
