    So why are you saying it's stopping you with working in a supermarket?

    Because I would not be able to sit at a till too long.

    It does not stop me getting a job but I have to find one that I can do.

    It has never stopped me yet and it won't stop me now. It is just a matter of waiting for the right job to come along that I can do.


    Should be ANY job to come along that you can do. There may be a recession looming, so go out there and get a job...ANY job.

    is there any chance this thread can be locked as it has absolutely nothing to do with the original question? it'd save anyone else being drawn into a pointless discussion with phil.

    Any job I can do. I have found 8 ish so far but I have not got anywhere with them because of my lack of office experience I think

    Yes, what's wrong with Tesco or Asda? You can more or less pick your hours and shifts, I believe.

    ah now I think the Asda uniform precluded a job there :rolleyes:
