Jamie_Hk Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 I tell you what, Tesco is 0_o.It's really good pay and tbh, my Tesco is only a Metro so it's quite cool and everyone's really laid back.But sitting at a till for 17 hours a week can't be good for ya. Seriously, I'm hardly ever put on the shop floor so I just sit there.The other down point is having to work 7-2 on a saturday. It is actual torture...=/I really want a job in River Island. I've tried in my local one so many times but they've just chosen to ignore me =P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickD Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 But sitting at a till for 17 hours a week can't be good for ya.At least you can sit down at work, I stand at tills for 9 Hours a day at work sometimes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 It would be good just to get a job again, all of these jobs laying people off, it's just hard to get back on the career ladder at the moment. Even temp agencies don't want me , and jobs that I'm currently in the process of going through are taking weeks in between just to get to the next stage - geez.Typical responses 'You're underqualified', 'you have no experience.' At these interviews etc they keep saying retail isn't classed as experience as the employer will see the shop name on your CV and just skip it. Job hunting is just one big vicious circle.

Fred Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 The other down point is having to work 7-2 on a saturday. It is actual torture...=/7-3 waitrose staff dining room. Its actual pretty good fun, though I am always dead by the end of the shift .As for tesco.. blah all of it is crap, I worked in produce and it was *****, I enjoyed going onto the tills.. only because it was something else to do. Not that I was properly trained on it, I just made up what I was meant to do.. must've overcharged/undercharged like.. everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickles Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Finding a job in Reading is harder than it looks, most people wont hire you because of the way you look. There is also the fact that alot of places in Reading arent hiring, which then is kinda likee errrrrrr I need a job. Reading isnt the best place to live if your 16 and need a job. Oh and are named as an 'emo'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Most of the shops in Reading these days are run by snobs anyway... and you arent an emo so I have no idea what they are on about.But I know what you mean..... Reading smells... really really smells.... of really bad cheese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickD Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 I don't think there is too many jobs that take your GCSE grades into consideration, look online on shops websites etc, apply online or send for an application pack. They will hen get back to you as to whether you where successfully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 A lot of employers won't take if you if you don't have GCSE's as you will most likely still come under 'Child Worker' legislation, which there are funny rules about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
