God - It makes me really angry that schools refuse to acknowledge that they have issues that need dealing with .... My daughter has suffered at the hands of a group of bullies & little or nothing was done by the school! She's only 10!

Hope the interview went well - re my appointment, I didnt do anything about bringing it any further forward - if I'd spoken to you week before last I probably would of, thanks for that!

Glad to hear you still sounding so positive - its great that you've pulled yourself back up. You should be really proud of yourself xxx

Ooh good luck with your interview and the education board,( don't envy you on that one, but stand your ground)

All the best
Geri

Hey hun how did the interview go.....?

Come on Roch how did it go ?????

Hmmmm she seems to be in hiding.

Yes Sonya u r ight i was in hiding
The reason was is because i wanted to wait till i had something really positive to write on my thread as i feel over the past months or i ever wrote was negative things and i know many of u r so caring and supportive towards me and i thank u for that from the bottom of my heart but lots of peeps read my thread although they dont post and i honestly felt like i was sounding so pathetic and whingieng non stop and although its a public forum it did hurt my feeling when some peeps wrote some very negative things some time ago on my thread on a few occasions and i took it to heart quite a few times and it really set me back in lots of ways so now i kind of am carefull to what i write i write about in public
Well job wise i loved the company the owner and his wife were very nice and made me feel at home it is a small company with only 8 peeps working in the office i would be working as a telephonist and doing admin work as well. It is a very busy taxi and courrier comoany with 4 telephonists working at each shift and non stop calls coming through constantly.
The first thing i did when i managed to get my breath back after walking up 3 flights of very steep stairs was to look at the chairs the stasff were sitting on and they looked very sturdy and had metal legs and not cheap pc chairs which pleased me.
They use a gprs system which i have never used and i am going in for a trial on Monday for 3 hrs to see if i can pick up the system then if it all goes ok and i handle myself ok for the 3 hrs on the phone as well then they will give me the job on a trial basis for 2 months.
It is very long hrs 1/10 5 days a week with sat and sunday off or 1/8 6 days a week with sat off as its the jewish sabbath and they are a religious jewish firm.
I think i would be happy working there so fingers crossed for Monday.





Weight wise i went for my first weigh in today and i am going to WW for suport and i am following a very low carb low fat diet and seems to be working well for me.
My clothes are so much loser and i have more energy.
I have had no carbs like bread,pasta,rice potatoes and so on just lean meat,fish and veg and drinking at least 3 ltrs of water and sticking to 20 grms of carbs a day in veg so have been in ketosis since day 2.
Well to cut a long story short as it hink i might be going on just a but 2 much i lost wait for it, drum roll "21 lbs"the leader asked me to get on and off 3 times and was well shocked i have never lost this much ever and i have taken pics of my ww card to show u all .

Anyway off to walk my Ebony going to take her to the park for a long hrs walk feel like i am walking on air.
My life has changed in such a short amount of time i am gobsmacked

Thanks so much to all of ur support, had a lovely day seem to be buzzing and walking on air.
Just took Ebony for an hours walk in the park, yes i had to sit down every 10/15 mins for a 5 min break but still am happy with that.
For over the past year i take 8 painkillers a day and 3 anti inflamatory tabs and usually i can barely stand up without taking 3 pk tabs and one anti inflam tab but today i forgot to take them and managed ok with not 2 much pain so am going to see if i can reduce them to 5/6 a day as that is all i am taking today, i am not sure if the 21lbs although water can make a differnce to my back pain.
Anyway just had a shower and washed my hair made Aaron some West indian Jerk Pork which he loves and now i am going to sit down and chill out.
Take care xxx

 

[mustdoit]

well done you are such a loooooooser ............keep looking after yourself xxx

 

[Roch]

well done you are such a loooooooser ............keep looking after yourself xxx

Thanks hun i have just worked out that i have lost 9% of my excess fat so am feeling happy !!

 

[Roch]

Well today i got a call from the owner of the taxi company and he wanted to just verify with me about the hours i will be able to work. He said the hours i wanted are not suitable and he needs me to work 6 days a week from 1/10 pm thats 54 hrs a week and that worries me.

Although i was desperate to have an income i think this job is ot the right one for me.
My health is improving but its going to take some time be there is a major differnce is my health and i am not able to work those long hours and i am as mum at the end of the day and i will not leave Aaron all day every day although he is nearly 15 he still needs me to supervise things and to be there for him.
So i am going to look for a part time job instead its not the end of the world this job was just not the job for me.

 

[sonkie]

Blimey that is a lot of hours, Im not surprised you dont want to do it. Yeh the money would have been nice but as you say you are a mum and need to be around.

Hi Roch hun,

If this is not meant to be then it's not, I agree. As you say, it would be throwing yourself into a lot of hours working after not being very well for a while.

I'm with you on this one and hope you find something part time very soon darling. I am so bleeding proud of you for going to the interview and getting the job, regardless!!

Your glass is more than half full at the moment girl and it jumps off the page as far as your self esteem lifting every day arty0049:

Thanks hun for that, for a moment i felt like i was just being a bit stupid but Aaron has to come first and even if he was older i have not worked for 3 years and just getting back on my feet so all those hours would be far 2 much for me at this present time.
So from 2morrow i will look for a part time job instead something that i know i can manage.
How r u hun have u had a nice weekend xx

 

[kittykat]

shame about the job hun undersatand that you need to be there for your lad i dont think id be happy working 54 hr week and thats with no kids dont dwell on it things are deffo on the up for you and that right job will certainly come along xxxxxx

 

[KittyB]

Bluddy hell Roch, that's never a part time job is it?! LOL

You'd be signing out of the european working time directive to be consistently doing more than 48 hours per week.

I'm sure you'll find something very soon than will fit well with you & Aaron.

[MadamDotty]

Hiya Roch

The good thing is you have decided to turn the job down, your choice not a case of you not being offered the job. It is very long hours for a single mum to work, but if you can get that job you can any job. You'll soon find the right one.

xx

 

[IslandBreeze]

I've just been reading your thread and wanted to say well done for turning the job down. Those kinds of hours are just mad - it would make anyone ill and it doesn't allow you to do anything else with your life. I'm in the process of leaving a job that has those hours and it's been awful - I couldn't cope and I don't have kids. We live in a culture now that glorifies long hours and it damages us - you have my total respect for putting yourself and your loved ones first. A better job will come your way in time.

[Dom1979]

54 hours!!!! Is he having a laugh?!! That's totally bonkers! As someone else said earlier on, I don't have kids, and there is no way I'd be able to work 54 hours a week! You've definitely made the right decision.
