well after walking out of my last job tuesday. everything had got to me and that one shift really screwd me up with the genral manager questioning everything i did. for each of the 150 meals i cooked there was abotu 3 he didnt question. it was stupid things liek why are there 8 oinion rings in that bowl (cos there small) so i lost it and walked out. there was other reasons liek i was promised a pay rise abotu 3 months ago and didnt get it. and the fact i was doing 50-60 hours per week. and doing triple shifts most days. so anyways i applyed to the place next door had an interview thursday and they were supposed to get intouch so i went in today and i got the job. now all i gotta do is prove myself over the next 13 weeks. and im sorted the best news is i am now on £5.05 per hour. and only doing 40-45 hours pweek. instead of £4.30 and doing 50-60 hours. and the odd week they dont need me cutting my hours to 30. so im happy. but i have lost about £400 worth of holiday pay cos of my temper. oh well what i didnt have i cant miss.
Congrats & Well Done nice attitude towards the holiday pay - just forget you were ever going to get it!
I need to look for a new job after the exams so i have a bit of money in the bank for uni. Currently working at John Lewis but they've refused me any overtime so i'm outta there which is a shame coz its a good place to work. Glad to hear you've got a new job. Hopefully the new job will offer you overtime anyway if you need the extar cash. Have fun although i'm impressed your still alive doing 60 hour weeks.
A 60 hour week is absolutely amazing dude, that's not even 8 hours for sleep per day I'm looking for a job near me atm, i'll probably end up working in Asda/Tesco or something (yay for meh if i do, discount on petrol )
well it hurt so much workin all those hours but they were so short staffed it was unbelivable. there was 6 cheffs to share between 7 13 hour days. and each cheff has to have between 1 and 2 days off per week. but now i feel normal and i dont look like the walking dead. i actually look like ive seen the sun. as all i did was work 6:30am-3pm go home sleep work 6pm-12pm most days.
