    I think I would be OK financially for a while, but I am not sure how easily I would find another job and what kind of reference I would get from this one.

    It's not like I am not willing to give it a go, I am, but it makes me so miserable. I go in with a smile and promise myself I will try and enjoy it, but 5 minutes into each day, I'm back to square one.

    Plus the ***** that will now be doing the job I was offered was totally rubbing it in my face today. I swear I could have slapped her one, or a few! :o:(

    Kind of get the feeling that they want you to quit, and are making it very difficult for you. That's called constructive dismissal :mad:

    It is awful to spend your time miserable, but would you be more miserable if you had no job, got lots of knock-backs from interviews, had less security and eventually felt the pinch financially? It's easy to comment on the side lines, but you do have to consider things very carefully before giving up your job.

    Get yourself a good cv put together and start looking for something else. Have you got any holidays due to go and register with some job agencies?

    Are your work colleagues making you miserable, or your employer? Are you being bullied/intimidated? Or just hate the job?

    Yes that's what I'm going to do. None in store today. The coupons are just another form of payment but your spend is still £20.hth x
