Have you thought of going back to college and retaking GCSE"s at all? You could get part time bar work or something and do college and i'm pretty sure it wouldn't cost a penny.
Maybe worth a thought.

Ive had that option to me for a longtime to go back and re-sit my GCSE's,
but thing is im getting old and I need to be able to take care of myself by moving out.
Eventually I mite consider it but the timing isn't right at the mo..
I just want a job so I can get out out meet new people and advise them on all the new benefits etc..
Im not just doing this cos of the phones, I just want something exciting careerwise...
I think the Job actually closed today for my local 02 store I wish they had put more info on there and also would of helped if it was fulltime nevertheless i'll just have to keep looking!
theres alot more shops out there to consider aswell Woolworths, Argos in the meantime, the best always comes to those who wait

You say you wanna do something exciting career wise, why you targetting phone companies especially p4u!!!
From what i have heard, its very high pressure as you have to keep to targets regarding sales.

Scott, did you recieve this letter ? what did it say?
I did try my best at the Phone discussion with them,
she said it was just a chance to get to know me abit more
anyways im just looking to do something different,
get out of poxy agencys and warehousing..
If this letter is bad news then i'll just move on,
maybe I could try Hotels next..
Or even PC World,
keep my eyes open for any vacancies with 02 aswell
Fatreg.. everything is hard work nowadays and you can't get by without someone shouting there odds at you,
Ive found that over the years

I had a look at 02's website and there careers section,
even found a job at my local branch but the vacancy is only partime.
do you know how many hours this iusually nvolves cause it doesn't say on the description nor does it mention about the wage
Im just intrested in doing something abit different now ive worked far to long on Agencys im not slagging them off or anything cos ive gained alot of experience working for them.
especially in the Automotive departments
However thats over with now,
I want a more exciting career and I just love meeting new people,
which helps doesn't it as you are corrosponding with customers daily giving them advice on products
Even if it is part time you should still apply for it so you can get your foot in the industry 1st and by working part time you can get more experience over some period, and if a full timer leaves you can take there place.
