> I finally got a job
Bookmark topic
Tomorrow the job centre was signing me up for a full time ymca course because I haven't found a job since Jan time.
Got a call from Halfords today, said they didn't want to send me a letter for a few reasons and could I come in.
Went in today, and they offered me a full time/full length contract job, pay isn't great at £5.70 an hour, but hey..it's a full time job
I have to travel up to Norwich next week to meet with people from Navman, garmin and tomtom so they can show me their products etc and train me, then I come back and work full time in my local store.
After my probation period of 3 months, I get a title of ICT Specialist
I don't know weather I'm excited or nervous as I've never worked before..ever, so my first job is a full time one.
Took about 10 months but I got there

Thanks guys,
Yea I heard back from the RAF but they wanted me to start the process this month, which would mean missing my holiday so they said so come back next year.
I hope I'll love this job, I'll be working with the sat navs, stereos and in car computers, all of which I think are pretty cool...anything like that I like.
Another reason they are sending me to the Norwich store is because apparently it's twice as big and 4 times as busy, and they said they want to drop me in at the deep end.
I was going to tax and insure my car to drive up to Norwich (bout 25miles from my house) but the fact is, i'm only there for 4 days, so I may see what the earliest train is and see if I can get there by train.

"yes, just like 6 months back"
