When I left school I knew I didn’t want to go to college as it didn’t interest me not earning money. So I went round my village my local town and handed out so many cvs nothing was done on computer apart from the boots job.
I had a shift trail at mothercare on Southampton road, was the weirdest work trail ever😂 had to try sell a pram and show how it worked even though I had no clue I was 15😂 then we had to try sell certain products to each other without even knowing the sex of the baby 🤷🏼♀️
I also had a shift trail at bhs for 3 hours and they never paid me💁🏼♀️ But it was just to learn the shop floor and the tills. It was so hot and stuffy in there I doubt I would of gone back anyway. It’s now closed and gone bankrupt 😂 so unlucky. Karma sucks.
i then applied for my local co-op – I managed to get a contract for 8 hours a week. I did over 20 hours a week sometimes 30. All depended on what as available. I usually got the 11-8 shift which was shit. And I did ever Sunday for a year. Anyway while I was still working their I met so many lovely people and made plenty of friends. Was such a laugh with the night shift people made work not feel like work. Worked their for over 1 and a half years then I found lloyds pharmacy.
i started lloyds pharmacy in March 2013 and it was something I wanted to do for a long time because I wanted to learn on the job! I think I hassled the manager for 4 months 🤷🏼♀️😂 I learnt so much and made such lovely friends staff felt like family which was amazing. They are such hard working girls and deserve a medal. I was contracted 37 hours and worked one Saturday a month which was perfect.
