nfbr Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 (edited) Went for an interview at Andrew Page in Warrington yesterday, got a phone call today offering me the job style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />So i'm now on £14500 a year (starting rate) roughly £6.97 an hour, and i will be working on the phones sorting out car parts to be delivered to local garages and stuff style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />So i handed in my lengthy and well explained resignation today, pointing out a few of the reasons other than money that i do not want to work another day with halfords, and i will be starting my new job in exactly two weeks style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Edited May 27, 2006 by nfbr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfbr Posted May 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Manager has only read my "Official" resignation so far. I asked him to keep the "unofficial" one to himself and to read it when he gets home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramirez Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 Other than the rap distance for work, well done! Also good luck. I feel so out of the loop style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted May 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 worked out if i do one hours overtime a day (in order to make the distance more worthwhile and cover my fuel costs) i could be potensially earning £18400 a year, and thats just on the starter wage! I'll be getting a pay review as long as i pass my probation after four months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
