Why is it so difficult to get a job here?

[vbkelly]

vbkelly i would have told my wife to take the job.Becouse if you have a job its allways a lot easer to get another job and you are gaining experece as well it might seem really bad pay but 40 hours at 6 pounds is 240 pounds better than nothink :( and gives you money to play with while looking for another job thats better for you . You might have enjoyed it night shift is normally very quiet so you might have been able to study to while there reading and lap top. gaz/maybs

yeah you are right but the other care home offer me £6.50per hour day shift but i didn't accept it bcoz there's no bank holiday pay, how bad is that anyway i got a job now

Good point about the pay.

Although the chaps rightly say it sounds low. Its not just about the pay per hour. Are you paid weekly or monthly? Different people prefer it in differnt ways. Always nice to get extra for bank holidays. Again some people prefer the higher rate others want more for the bank holidays.

Nights can be handy, i know some couples actually say they see more of one another if they plan out the time well. As both get chores done when the other working/sleeping and the quality time they have is better used.
I know those with children find again if well planed out the time spent with children is better used and with just one parent they spend more one to one time. Which maybe hertic at the time but is worth it when they look back in years to come.

One couple told me now say they only have certain evenings together they plan them and do something nice with them or at least have a good conversation instead of sitting square eyed in front of the telly

There is alwasy a positive if you put your mind to it
