I was stood up last night. :eek:

Yeah it sucks but there's not a lot that can be done about it. The problem where I work is massively varying demand for barstaff depending on the night. Saturday night is busy busy and we open all 3 rooms but Fridays are pants and are main room only. We do student nights as well but the only guaranteed busy ones are VodbullsOne of the main reasons people leave this job is because they get another job with more hours.

When I was on the bar I was screaming for extra hours, I was a cellarman for a while and did some promo work too. Ask if they need any promotions staff in the daytime or something like that - there are a few bank holidays coming up which your place should be open for.

I'm waiting for a new motherboard to appear. Everyone has been saying "in 2 days" "in a few days" "oh right, tomorrow now!" "no sorry it's a week off" etc etc for the past two months. My current comp is dying :-(

not worth getting out of bed for 10hrs a week

a jobs a job though, and being a student i need what ever i can grasp onto.
it would of been nice if she could of told me beforehand that it was like that though.

when i work it out, i appear to be getting the same amount of money as when i worked in mc donalds. though i was looking forward to the extra £100 a month i was told i would get :(

I'm sure that you're adequately rewarded each month though :)

I work more than I want (more than 1 hour per week)

I am surrounded by fools and old cynics.

I have to drive 100 miles for the pleasure.

I don't complain too much though. They pay a lot more than most.

true, and tbh I have no real complaints. just a twinge every now and then.
