I havent worked for a few years and since moving i have really wanted to get back to work.I wasnt really sure where to start
43 years old with very little experience! I decided to ring all the shops/offices in the town and I got a call back from a Peacocks asking me in for an interview.I went yesterday and I have got the job. Just a 4 hour contract to start with but it is better than nothing. They told me i would probably do at least 8 hours a week and when people leave there will be a chance to up my hours!!!I cant believe it!!! I am a bit nervous as I havent worked on a till since i was 17 but i am sure i can pick it up.xx

Well done!
Hopefully the hours will increase.
I have never worked on a till, but I have always wanted to. Working in an office I doubt I will have the chance now."I'm not from around here, I have my own customs"
For confirmation: No, I'm not a 40 year old woman, I'm a 26 year old bloke!0 -
