Heck, 21!!!! That's rather errrm, scary?! Hope you've managed to get down to a healthy level.
I can't believe your employer thinks they can ride roughshod over you like this - are you in a union? Sounds like they need to start getting involved, as this seems unfair in the extreme.0 -
I can't do anything. I will cheer up once I do an ad to rent my room out.
Thurday and Friday were no spend days. lol. Hurray.

Hello thank you v much. Susan is here. I am happy after being vvv down. The boys have visited twice now this weekend and kept hugging me. I am squished now but happy.
We were treated to Pizza Express gorgeous meal yesterday by Susan. Then today we went to Asda and bought lots of healthy food for only £31. I also bought some foundation v cheap on fleabay for £17 plus postage and this will be all I need for this year at work. It is an essential. I charged all this to my credit card.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -

What horrid work place SW! Changing things so often is bad enough, but doing it by text is just disgusting - if they can't say these things to your face it's because they know it's highly unreasonable and they don't want to deal with the fallout (upsetting you) :mad:"You won't bloom until you're planted" - Graffiti spotted in Newcastle.

It's horrid but that's the way this place is now. Anyone old is being replaced by cheaper people and side lined like me. I'm going to try to make it work. We shall see.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220

That's the problem when you are expendable, same as me. Too scared of losing our jobs to rock the boat ! However if they are trying to increase your workload above what you can do in your reduced hours I would look to the union for advice SW.

It's ok it's been clarified, I have to ask them to amend the contract and then I will sign it.
I just heard some bad news one of my friends has had the same rubbish at work and I think lost their job. I'm off today and am supposed to be working here but haven't done anything yet.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220
