Should I stay or should I go?????

[DirtyHarry]

no job security on 3 month contracts, no idea of where and what i'll be doing everyday, no chance of having any holiday dates I may want, working every Saturday........summer months looming and nice family day outs/weekends away a definate no no, no uniform still. Spending not far off £100 per week petrol(not to mention wear n tear)

Or job with slightly better pay of approx £7.80 as delivery driver, 6 hours less per week(Don't do much overtime per week at R.M, approx 3-6hours) 12 mile round trip x 3 days=approx 40 mile per week(max 60) compared to 60-80 miles per day x 5. Permanent contract and I don't have to use my own car to get the job done ;-)

6.30-13.30 Mon,Tue and Wed....so I could even look for another job Thur and/or Fri


I do like my job as a postie but not knowing what and where i'll be working, if i'll be taking a full walk or 2 halves of 2 walks.... added with 2 hours driving per day has got me thinking as I have been offered another job

What will happen if I hand my notice in, regards my holiday owed?? will they honour it and pay me what i'm owed(Doubt it) as i'm due approx 9 days

Go, just thank your lucky stars and go, don't look back at this car crash of a firm, just walk, mate, walk away.

Go. Best thing I ever did.

Pointless question in the first place. What's it got to do with anyone else? It's like saying should I buy Heinz or Branston beans..........I mean who cares?

If you go there will be trouble
If you stay it will be double.

£100 per week petrol. Is that just back and fourth to work

£100 per week petrol. Is that just back and fourth to work

60 mile to work and back plus 20 miles to and from nursery, which conveniently is in the opposite direction!(But not changing his nursery as he is settled) works out to approx 400 miles per week plus another 20-30(Yes, more fool me but I have my reasons that not all will agree with ) per week on my rounds. Could save by getting a cheaper car to run, but have a reliable car and comfortable 1......so why risk buying a car that can have all sorts of problems.

For the opinion of people who decided to leave R.M for another job and those that had the opportunity to leave but decided to stay......yes, everyones personal preferences/situation is different but believe it or not, there is some useful advice/information given out on here that can help ME make MY choice.........like I could say that your response was pointless too????

Union.....Rep???? 2 things that do not exist in our office i'm afraid. I know what you mean, but I use approx £10 per week during my workin hours, getting to and from my walk, which is just a small proportion of the £90 per week spent in total

Post_bitch, have you any concept of the current prospects for finding work?
You can't just apply for local vacancies, if you want to stand any realistic chance of getting a job the same year.
