With having to work every Saturday (9am-3pm), the shite pay & the dodgy boss getting more & more on my nerves, I finally got off my arse, updated my CV and started applying for new jobs a few weeks ago.
My first port of call was actually a "walk in off the street" situation at the local Power Board last Wednesday, and I walked straight into the middle of major interviews being carried out for multiple positions. The personnel lady told me applications had closed, but as soon as I said I'd worked in the call centre at Telecom for a couple of years, she asked me when I could come in for a proper interview!
So there were 2 hours of tests & an interview on Friday morning & then more tests on Monday morning (before work started - they were very good about that) and I've just now had the phone call offering me a position, and not at the lowest salary they could have given me either.
So 5 weeks training commences on the 1st of August and I have to give my notice in here at the bike shop a week prior to that. (I've been advised not to give them more notice in case they make my life hell or decide to fire me, despite the fact that it would be unfair dismissal).
Yippee!!!!![]()
