    Ask the new employer for an advance on your wages
    Talk to your bank about an overdraft.

    Surely you'd get a salary from your old job and then a salary from the new job a month later.

    Gap between end of new job and start of next one?

    Moving from weekly to monthly pay?

    You can sign on if you are going to look for a temp job to cover you in the meantime I am sure


    or you just have to be extra careful when you do get paid as you will be 2 weeks or more short of a months money or get a overdraft to help or borrow something of family?

    Overdraft? Borrow from friends or family?
