Oh Guess What!

Look at this link and you'll notice that the Peterbourgh branch of Maidenhead Aquatics is ranked the best MA in the country, this basically means it is one of, maybe even the best (debateable) fish shop in the country... well, guess who's just been offered a job there Few little details to sort out, like how to fit it into my current job but hopefully i'll be there soon!! Sorry no discounts to anyone!! HEHE!! Suddenly that reef tank seems so much easier and cheaper!

well done mate, you've clearly got "the skills to pay the bills". Does anyone else say that or is it just me?

 

[timmystood]

Ooohhhh, nice Tim! Congrats! =D
Though, honestly, with the hours you work now, I don't really see it fit in as a second job. Well, not if you want to have enough time to sleep anyway. Hope you can work out all those details and stuff though =D
And I'm sure we can work on those 'no discounts'

--edit--
I only just noticed your text, and figured it's a bit too late to get back to you now. Sorry! I wasn't ignoring you!

I seem to recall the Beastie Boys saying it a few years back...

So thats where i got it from...didn't actually know what it was from and most people greeted it with puzzled looks.

Congratulations on your new job, timmystood I'm sure you'll be great at it!

Well, I don't have it yet! It's a problem you see!

MA have offered me part-time work at weekends (I applied for any work there about 3 months ago). Problem is, since then I have found a full-time job in farming. As Erised will tell you the hours are really crappy. For example, from Monday, I will be working 7 days a work, 14 hour days for a whole month... while we 'muck' out 2 of the chicken houses. Also, the rest of the time I have to work pretty much all weekends meaning that work at MA would be impossible, so I said this to the Manager at MA yesterday when he phoned and he said maybe we could work around it and should discuss it tommorrow when I meet him. If they offered me a full time job there I would take it without even thinking, I really wouldn't care if it was less money or anything, just to work there would be great! (the way I see it is that it's like wanting a job in politics and being offered the job of president straight away) that's how highly I rate MA at Peterborough. So it's a real dilemia, I can't really say to my full-time boss can I please not work weekends so I can work at MA because my job needs me to work weekends but at the same time I REALLY want to work at MA... it's tough

Well, I find that enjoying a job is worth just as much as some money and to be honest I don't really enjoy my current job working long hours shovelling chicken pooh!! LOL!

I'm just stuck what to do!
