Oh Dear!

I have neglected my blog, not on purpose mind you but due to the fact that I have just finished a 6 day stint at work *blimey*

BUT  Great news is that I have a new job (whirls round and round in excitement)  it is as a community care support worker for elderly people.  I had the interview on Monday and was offered the job right there and then *yay*.  I have never done anything like this before and understands that it also involves personal care with people aswell so I am a bit nervous.  My current work colleagues keep saying that I won't like the job and it isn't for me so my head is in a major whirl.  I know they don't want me to leave or maybe I should actually say my cashier friend doesn't want me to leave, the first thing my manager said to me when I told her I was leaving was 'You had better put the tip money you borrowed back', I borrowed £20 and had every intention of repaying it.  No congratulations or anything like that so that put my back up a bit.

It does mean though that I need to buy a car before I start and so currently my car fund stands at £30 *aaaahhhhh* I had better start selling stuff left right and centre I think to hit a £500 target.

Did I mention that the money is fantastic in my new job?!  Well it is 3 x the salary I am on at the moment so that softens the blow slighty :0)

Anyways day off today and my craft desk looks like it has been hit by a bomb so I shall be making some nw little gems today.

Love

  1. Congratulations again Nicole on your new job. Good luck with the car fund - it is easier to save when you have a goal to aim for.

    Don't worry about the less than exciting response from your current work - they obviously don't want you to go (a major sign of how nice you are and how well you do your current job!). Jealousy is a horrid trait.

    Keep going, keep crafting and the sky is the limit!!

  2. Good Luck in your new job x

    Sounds to me like you are better off leaving the other behind. Best of luck saving up too.
