    Well done on your win Jen, i think the bloke is right stay on SSP forget about work over christmas and then see how you feel in the new year. If you still feel the same hand your notice in.

    MM- have you looked at wholesale/job lot stuff people sell on ebay? For a few months i was buying job lot baby shoes off ebay and then selling them seperate on ebay. I made a couple of pound profit with each pair, but got anoyyed with all the trips to the post office and gave up in the end.

    Hi Maria, have had a look on eBay but didn't know where to start! don't suppose you still have the id of the person you bought the shoes from? Post office not a prob as OH works right next door to one!

    Are you def handing your notice in Jen? Good luck whatever you decide.

    i am not sure. the problem is if i wait til the end of my sick leave i will have to work a whole months notice before i leave if i hand it in now i will onlt have to work a week and a half.

    I am sure i want to leave my face doesn't fit and nothing i do will be good enough for my manager. I have applied for another job today same post differnet centre lovely supportive manager.

    MM- i just had a look in my ebay favourites, but ive either deleted him a some point or he doesnt sell anymore, i think i probably deleted him. I tried searching for baby shoes job lot and baby shoe wholesale and cant find him all i found it someone selling a job lot of the very same shoes i used to sell but his selling them very expenisive as i used to get about 15 pairs for £18.http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Job-Lot-12-x-Brand-New-Baby-Girls-Pram-Shoes-3-Sizes_W0QQitemZ160387058938QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_WSJL_Wholesale_GL?hash=item2557d04cfa

    Thanks for looking Maria, guess prices have gone up! Never mind was worth a try.
    Dont worry about having to work your notice Jen, if it's still affecting you then the doc will sign you off again. Going to take at least a month for tablets to take full effect anyway.Good luck for the job application.

    Hi Jen, bloody virgin bingo, tried to join but they want id, bank statement or utility bill- all utilities are in OHs name and only get online bank statements and they won't accept a screenshot of that . So have given up on them.
    Won £22.50 on bb though :-)
