Pickles Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 I'm hating my job atm. Working with my two friends is not fun. Oh well when I turn 16 I'm going to try and get another job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 I phoned Chessington, and got an answerphone. Nice to see the trend continuing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Got a call back, the only time they have Assesment dates I'm away.No job for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Seriously? Thats a bit ghay. Can they not make any negotiations with you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 I decided it wasn't really worth fussing over. Nice person said that they'd keep my application on hold adn give me a call if any other Assesment Days come up. Can't say fairer than that!

Marc Posted September 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 To be fair my dealings with geting a job with tussauds went from being amazingly easy to the most stupid process in the world! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Finally had my assessment at Chessington today (8 months later!), not that anybody else has remembered about it, but hey!For anyone that's even vaguely interested, it went pretty well, the downer being I don't think they have any positions in R&A left, so it's a case of F&B, Car Parks and Presentations or nothing. Decisions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Posted October 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Theres a new law in force I think meaning they cant discriminate on age unless they have a valid reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Don't think that apply to a 16 year old and under. There are laws in place so you don't work over specific amount of times, days, hours, which is why people don't want to employ under 16's. Not to mention I swear you have to be at least 16 to work in Ride and Attractions, I mean at Thorpe it's 18 so can't see them going lower than 16 at chessington...meh. And I have never seen anyone under 16 work at Chessington, and weren't Thorpe sued for employing 15 year olds, although they lied about their age.

Marc Posted October 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Thorpe prefure over 18s but will employ under 18s if need be, and probably under 16s now but yea if dann was to young, he wouldn't have been offered the job and starting on saturday.
