I worked part time in the local Wimpy when mine went to school. Holiday meant childminders as I didn't have family round where I was, but I did have good friends who I trusted completely. |

its called term time, and your paid pro rata its not unpaid your salary is adjusted accordling you still get 12 payslips per year providing if you have cover OT or UAL, then you are paid roughly the same amount every month, I always worked part time round children and OH shifts I always had at least 2 jobs , I work for sister for a long time when she had the pub, I did bar work and cleaning and could jungle the children accordingly, they have after school clubs and all sorts now, didnt have when mine where small butmy sisters and I help each other out... |

I dont know what your skilled at Muffy, but one of the best PA'S I ever had - had little experiance at being a PA - She could type and use word, Excel email and that sort of thing from being at home. |

Ah, now my mate was a dinner lady, she was paid one third pay during holidays and it was called 'retainer' payment. |

They stopped retainer pay a while back Teresa, I work in a school kitchen for years and it was good money, |

I will be totally honest with you Muffy, Boots and stores like that will start taking on for christmas soon but its very stale out there at the moment, what with the school leavers and all, its has gotten better since new year and still alot of places or decent places are not taking on at the mo... |

Tell me about it, I'm still job-hunting. Even looking at part time to broaden my search ... |

You will be good at........ whatever you choose to do Muffy..... Job share or flexi hours might be ideal ........if you can get it |

Muffyxx | Report | 2 Sep 2009 20:19 |
Well.........been offered at least two cleaning jobs .....which if the hours suit I'll take to start me off.......plus a couple of seasonal fruit picking jobs...which are pretty cruddy really but am happy to do in the short term....... also have applied to one of those courier companies where you are given a job lot of parcels to deliver.......one of the girls at the school does it and says it's worthwhile....so fingers crossed they'll be vacancies there for me. |

You will be suprised how many women loose their confidence whilst staying at home or man for that fact, you'll love it, bit of extra dosh and all that. |

Muffyxx | Report | 2 Sep 2009 20:38 |
Weeeeeeeeeell the extra dosh will just pay the bills without stress for now I think Hayley but that in itself will be a lovely change from worrying about how to rob Peter to pay Paul lol. IF there is any left over from that it will be a nice bonus.....and let's face it I'm not exactly setting my sights high for now lol. xx |
