    yeah, don't get hung up on the non admin skills you think you don't have.

    I've been in Admin for a while and you have far more knowledge of programmes/more accurate typing skills than i have.


    (see i don't even capitalise my i's here.)

    You need to think outside the box hun......

    bar work is like getting paid for a night out, and experience is easily made up, especially if you've lived in other towns..... And no matter which pub you go work in, you can never really pour a pint straight off as each places pumps are different.
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
    (it's part of my charm!)
  • I'm sorry that it's not working out for you at the moment IA - I can understand hoiw you feel. I started my NVQ3 when my youngest was tiny and she spent more time with my mum than she did with me because I had to go into "work" free to do a lot of my courseowrs - but I'd already waited for my other children to go to full-time school and she came as a bit of a surprise.

    As you are a qualified nursery nurse have you tried the nursery the girls would be going to to see if they have any hours going? you could maybe fit it in with their time there?

    Have you looked at the Job Centre online? You can specify up to 16 hours or 16-30 hours on it and it is updated daily Monday to Friday.

    I've spent hours on it trawling through but there's just nothing.:(

  • Well Ash would but not K. After Ash's 3rd birthday she'll have 5 free 2 1/2 hr sessions but not really enough time to go and earn any money!
