Unavailable

From Friday to Monday, i'll be unavailable (Staying at a friends house).

Well, I finally got a job. The only thing is, it's only 4hrs per week, at £5 per hour. I suspected it would effect my Jobseekers allowance, maybe even cut it off completely, but I was partiarly wrong.

It will effect my Jobseekers, since they only allow an extra £5 earnings per week. Anything else, they'll take from my Jobseekers income. So all in all, if I take the job, I'd be working for just £5. Which is peanuts O_o;

It'd also mean more paperwork, as I'd have to fill in more forms every 2 weeks when it comes to claiming for my Jobseekers. It'd also probably complicate things later on, when the scheme for AddenBrokes finally comes up in a few months. I've been trying to get in contact to see when the AddenBrookes scheme happens, but the only time he's ever available is between 8am and 9am in the morning. I'll have to try again tomorrow.

I wasn't sure what to do. Taking the job for just £5 hardly seems worth it. But having a different employer to use as a reference would be very useful, considering my previous employer who always had a thing against me. It'd also be IT related, so it'll look good on my CV even if it is just copying information from Invoices and stuff.

I'm having a hard time deciding what to do. I asked my dad, and he told me to go for it... But to be honest I'm actually dipping towards not doing it.

It's also a long way away, and I have to talk in school shoes, which hurt my feet like mad after about 15 - 20mins of walking. They weren't meant for such long distances.... such a trivial matter I know, but still....

Bleh. Everything says I should (Even though I earn practically nothing), but I really don't want to. Goes to show how lazy I've become -_-;

Well it is only temporary... and it dosn't stop my Jobseekers, it simply reduces it... So... I guess I will =_=;

ugu~
I should feel happy =P
Nyaaaa~

Edit:
Actually a few things that do worry me about working there. The employer seems a bit slow and stupid (She actually laid on the desk in order to get to the screen I was working on instead of walking around the table, and knocked her tea all over the place in the process), which might seem.... to another employer who uses her as a reference, they wouldn't be able to judge my skills very well if they get the same impression. (Nothing against her personally of course). But I'm not amazingly worried about it, it's just something I'm slightly concerned about. The main thing that does worry me the most, is I found the obsessive short women is working there too.... That one which use to stalk me, and then randomely call around the house just to talk to me, etc.... She stopped coming around, but if I see her at work.... It's going to make me very uncomfortable... She might even start coming around the house again =_=;

Uguuuu~
