hugs to you, I can understand exactly how you feel but it could be an opportunity to find a better job than the one you got, with better pay, conditions, journey to work etc.
check and double check your budget, do you keep a spending diary? I never realised how much I spent on chocolate at work until this month ;-) it really does help to realised where the extra unaccounted for money goes.
your employer should allow you time off to go and look for another job, register & go and see as many agencies as you can, put your cv on sites such as monster etc - you'll be amazed at the amount of phone you get & for jobs you never see on websites until it's too late & someone else snaffled it!
good luck & chin up chick, i know it seems a nightmare at the moment but in the future you could look back & think it was a cloud with a silver lining.Who says I have to be normal?

Although the pub is looking very tempting this evening.....:jI need to start saving so I plan to save £2 a week to start with:beer:0 -
Good luck finding something soon. Someone with your work ethic won't be out of a job for long.
If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
Heyah, how you feeling today?
Maybe take a look at your cv & see if any improvements can be made, if possible ask a friend or someone that can be objective to give you a hand.
Also do you tailor your cv for the jobs you are applying to?
I'm no expert on cv writing & mine is pretty poor but there are lots of websites that can help.
happy job huntingWho says I have to be normal?

Well i appear to have caused a row between my mangers, 1 wants me to go 2 don't! I really want to leave anyway, but as my finances are such a mess and im not exactly over run with job offers, im going to stay and keep job hunting.
Still no replies to my lodger adverts though
And no luck with a part time job, thought i found one at a bowling alley - but its gone already......
think i may take your advice and try and sell things on ebay i have lots of junk but its way to cold for a carboot just yet!!
Thanks for all your help guys

yeah, i'm thinking of car booting - a bit scared as i've only ever been to one before & never sold at one but getting quite excited bout thought but i'm gonna wait til it gets bit warmer first!;) Going to take all the stuff that isn't ebay-able & i have that much junk it should be quite a bit!
I'm still surprised by things that sell & don't sell on ebay.
Good that 2 managers don't want you to go, i'd take some comfort from that, ignore the one that wants u to go!!
Happy job hunting & ebaying! PM me ur sellers name so I can have a look at your goodies! (although i'm trying to be good I can never resist a bargain):rotfl:Who says I have to be normal?
