Fed up

[4getmenot]

Todays probably last day of helping out in office so I am then going to be bored again. Really need a job. Was emailed weeks ago saying this company would be in touch with an interview date and I have emailed twice and nothing. So I rang them and said 'has the position been filled' and the bloke said 'oh I'm not sure' like he doesnt know that there is a new person sat opposite him lol. There is a job on net at moment which is just fill in office work whilst people are on summer hols but may lead to more. Only thing is its for a company that sell dog cages, toys etc and I hate dogs. lol

i doubt they have dogs there though, sis.

Thanks for helping last couple of weeks, may even get you a nice birthday pressie for it (let me know what you want)

[4getmenot]

was more to help mum and dad. So you dont have to get me any more than you normally would. Dog place is just down road by caravan place. Its only up to 18 but would be something.

[redcrx]

try it, apply for everything

ps. i do need to know what you want for birthday, sorry i cant stretch to a job :(

[4getmenot]

my own business then?

[LoftyLottie]

No vacancies at W then 4get? Might be worth trying. Not your cup of tea I know, but you may get some part time shifts and it's close to home. x

[4getmenot]

I dont mind shops loftie. My partners family all work there but they only start you on 5hr shifts anyway.

[redcrx]

if you had your own business, what would it be?

[LoftyLottie]

Wouldn't 5hr shifts be better than nothing 4get. You needn't stay there and you might get some cheap food. No transport costs or anything?

[4getmenot]

they dont have any jobs going and I would be better off with dole money than 5hrs a week. And red I have no idea

[4getmenot]

heard from original company who said they would be in contact with an interview date to now tell me my application was unsuccessful. I dont get it covered all their work criteria!!

[ummmm]

4get....you said you can use sage. Have you thought about doing book-keeping for small business?

[ummmm]

'es'

[Bbbananas]

Beats cats............

[redcrx]

4get, maybe they have found they cant afford to take anyone on and have backed out,

[4getmenot]

I can only use old sage software to input invoices purchase orders etc, so only have experience of sage. I personally think the woman forgot about me and now I've chased 3 times she's using that as an excuse. Job was more or less what I did at old place of work.

[ummmm]

The rest is not that much different.

Actually it can all be done on Excel.....

I use to work for 4 different (small) companies. All on excel. The main one was sage.

[ttfn]

have you tried learn direct 4get to see if there is anything you could do to update your sage and any other skills?

[4getmenot]

ha email from company after I asked them why my application was unsuccessful and they said within 10 days they had 70 applcants mine was in top 10 and nothing wrong with my cv.

[ttfn]

Don't give up 4get - the competition is strong in numbers - but take heart from what they said. You've just got to keep plugging away at it x

[4getmenot]

cheers me ol mucker. nice words to hear at the moment x
