Thats my problem you see, im on £5.73 now, ive gone up to that(i think, so ive been told) when i hit 18, which is a decent wage for an 18 year old, but i just dont get the hours, and the worry the company is going tits up

Off to Mc Ds i go!

Good luck Joe, some people look down on it as a living but that's what it is - a living.
At least you're not shovelling sh*t all day long to earn a crust.

sorry to hear that Joe.. fingers crossed something else comes up for you soon. You seem to have a good work ethic, keep it up and am sure that a new/better job will be just around the corner..

Exactly, my brother worked there and he got decent money for it. It was hard work and he often finished late, but its a living, and money.
Will be more work then what i do now, but ill get more money, and at least be given a uniform.
Only be until end of September next year when i hope to have an apprenticeship.

I was considered "excellent" by the national manager of Burger King when she happened to call in unannounced.

Still proud of that ;)

I did put on a stone in the 2 months I worked there - try not to eat too many of your wares eh?

I wont do, i dont really like the stuff. Cant eat Mc Ds before i cycle either, gives me bad stomach cramp, and it will be a ride uphill all the way home.
Burger King, i can eat alot of, ride an hour later and still be fine.
Strange isnt it!

The sad thing is, a few of us can see where the shop is going wrong, and we arent trained like those twats in the office.
I dont know:sad:

Joe... you are right... those on the front line know the issues, those up above don't/won't listen.

Believe you me, doesn't matter what job you are in, or pay scale, if you are active with the 'front line produce' (be it gadgets, clothes, burgers or people/students) you know the problems, those back in the 'centre' haven't got a clue, nor will listen...;)

Chin up fella... ! :ohmy::biggrin::biggrin:

My wife had a 'redundancy notice' delivered today -they wrote the letter a week ago..... but didn't post till yesterday..... arrives just on the day she goes to a big school re-union party.... bit of a sh!ter but she was shooed out of the house at about 11 to 'chill' for the day at a hotel, before tonight's party.... don't know when she's coming home, but it won't be before 3 pm tomorrow - I'm taking little miss to a Scalextric party...hard work this :wub:
