gbacon85 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Blag it. So many clients I deal with have done the same so don't worry. Also don't be afraid to ask the SD and OD for their input as well. They'll love that, and see themselves as being listened to. Keep the OD on side, they hold the real power!

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted October 17, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted October 17, 2015 So I've been working nights in Sainsburys the past few weeks. This evening I quit mid shift. It was horrendous. Remind me to stick to jobs that mainly involve sitting in front of computers all day in future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted October 18, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted October 18, 2015 What was horrendous about it? I've never worked in a supermarket, so I don't know the ins and outs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnotherCrapUsername Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) I've worked for a supermarket for the last ten years. I suppose you could say that I've done alright out of it, I'm in a position now that is far above where I started, at 30 I've been able to buy a house which is now fully paid off, great holidays etc. Â The only thing I'm missing is my soul. Â Working for a big supermarket is absolutely soul destroying. I feel as though there's no way out, that I'm stuck in this godforsaken company until I can build up my pension (which they've royally fucked every colleague with over the last 6 months) and get the fuck out of this company. Â SpursRiotFan I completely and wholeheartedly fucking salute you! Edited October 18, 2015 by ThommoLincs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanz25 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Probably not the right place to ask but seeing as it's the only relevant thread I will. Â Im finishing my third year in college this year and want to go on and do English with Journalism as a degree. Looked at Coventry uni yesterday and was pleasantly surprised. Anyone on here been to it in the past 5-8 years able to vouch for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Dem Wanz Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I went to Warwick Uni and spent a bit of a time in Coventry itself (ie, went on nights out there during my first year) so from my extremely limited experience from being there - its a decent student city. Sorry I can't be of more help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted October 18, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted October 18, 2015 Thunderplex, I wasn't working with customers or anything. It was literally 10 hours a night, three nights a week of stock replenishment. My knees and back would be fucked at the end of a shift. Not for me.

Didn't look to bad yesterday walking round the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife did her degree at Cov uni and a masters at Warwick. Warwick is very Tory though, but then a lot of Cov folk hate students as much as Muslims.

Warwick has absolutely nothing on Durham, Oxford or Cambridge for toffs and Toriness. Edited October 25, 2015 by Otto Dem Wanz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 10, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 10, 2016 If this is probably the last year of it anyway, you should probably take the work and get some money whilst you figure out what you want to do with yourself, no? And even if it's not the last year the position is available go into it knowing you intend it to be your last year, and think about what you want to do and make some moves in the right direction so you're ready to go when it gets to November. Â It's seasonal work so you should really be using the off season to explore your other options, not now when the work is on the table! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Is there not a glut of that kind of work in your area? There's always tons of seasonal work of that nature around here. Also, when else will you be able to say you're a Bushwhacker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
