I wouldn't be able to afford a car and be applying for an awful zero hour contract with night shift and early morning shift patterns.

You are giving them a license to shaft you there even if you did have a car.
They want you to have a car so you can drive in at a moments notice to suit their whims. Best off out of it.

Same story as usual though, the only jobs that get advertised either have ludicrous demands for previous experience or are the typical garbage sales jobs.
I guess going from business to business in the local business-park leaving my CV would be a decent idea if it wasn't for the fact that my CV is shit.
Truly spoken like some privileged, over-educated twat right there.
I'd take a job like that in a second.
BR.
F*cking hell haha, as blatant as they come.
Justicar
A zero hour contract, that means when the company has no work that week, you don't come to work. You have no come back. You have to work whatever they want you to and at their convenience. You have no job security, why would you want to take that?!
I've worked since I was 16 (I'm now 23), mostly in retail and have witnessed this shafting time and time again.
I am from a working class family and went to a shit school. I scraped into uni and only did so with a hefty student loan. My parents are able to help me out with my masters fees thankfully and I've been awarded a full scholarship to do my PhD.
Privileged? No. Overeducated? Maybe. Twat? Probably.
Franck
Because 99 times out of 100 any job is better than no job.
Justicar
If your boss has no hours then it is as good as no job.
Shola
A zero hour contract is fine for me at the moment and I don't think this job is trying to exploit me, it's just the buses don't run early enough. I'm more annoyed how there is a very few jobs in my town and I can't make a short trip to a town only a few miles away.
Hopefully my parents will offer lifts.
Flash.
Didn't even ask for it.

Haha. Perfect timing. Rubbing salt into Shola's wounds.
But congrats
Franck
It's still a job on paper, which means that you will have something in your CV and technically won't be unemployed when you apply for a different job.
In general it's a whole lot easier for someone who's already employed to get a new job than it is for someone who is unemployed, especially those who are long-term unemployed.
Still wouldn't.
Not because I think I'm "too good" for it, I'm just not cut out for the type of working conditions that'd come with it.
Same with sales jobs, tried it before and realised I'm simply not cut out for that type of work.

If you haven't got a permanent resident visa yet you should ask them to pay for that rather than the wage rise.
Franck
Would have been wasting my potential, but it's not as if I didn't manage to do that anyway.
Still at Groupon?
Shola
Fair enough. Anything but telesales.
Congrats Flash.
Franck
Having worked door sales, I'd probably prefer telesales if I was forced to work sales again.

Need to be in the job for 2 years to get PR iirc.

Someone posted a thread about a game in which the goal was taking a chick to bed. It happened about 3 years ago or something on this very same forums. Does anyone remember the name of that game? I want to fap to it again.

Wasn't that, but just as I wrote you a reply, I found it \o/
