Again it doesn't sound promising at work. The usual lack of work issues. "Training" might help to do something else at work but it isn't the solution. They may have to let go of us inputters and coders. Somehow need to get a new job asap. I am not going back on the JSA or New Deal (they have all always will suck ass ( Read more... )

4 days finished. All I've been doing was copying and pasting company details from e-mails into Excel. Would of lasted longer if I hadn't got that Kate and Co call ( Read more... )

Went back to Solihull College with Emma being disappointed in me. I might have a four day ( Read more... )

Back on Options again. This time for 13 weeks. Time table is supposed to be: Placement Mon, Wed to Fri. Jobsearch on Tuesday's. Not got placement yet. Dunno if and when I am supposed to start the Admin course. I heard they are thinking of putting me on placement at the Woodlands Campus (the new building opened last year).

And I should have my bus pass ready by Monday. I start on September the 10th.

I got my Health and Safety Level 2 certificate at Pertemps today (had First Aid one in post two or three weeks ago).

My start date for the Admin Option at Solihull College is the 10th of September.
