Aahhhhh fab!! Well done. What industry are you in if you don’t mind me asking?Go for it, I applied for a job 2 grades above the one I'm in now and I got it. Start next week, better working hours to suit nursery drop offs and just the challenge I need right now to take my mind off lockdown. If you don't succeed then you can ask for feedback and focus on areas to improve on for the future
I’m so sorry. What a shit situation for you.I was part of the year 13s who didn’t get to sit exams last summer so got CAGs. I decided to sit one of the subjects as I thought I could have done better. I got the same grade again, however one of my papers was lost. Only 19 students sat that same paper yet they managed to lose mine. Since I got my results I’ve been trying to get the exam board to at least apologise for losing my paper and look into changing my grade. The paper that was lost is the one I think I did best in and if I’ve got at least 1 more mark on it than I did on the other paper that was marked I will be within the A grade boundary. Now my next option is to go to an appeal hearing, something used when a candidate has been accused of malpractice. Why do I have to go to a hearing when it’s the board who are guilty of malpractice? I really just want to give up at this point since I’ve already got unconditional offers for university from the grades I already had but my dad literally yelled at me for saying this because he helped me write all my arguments and thinks I’m a terrible person for not wanting to carry on. He keeps saying that I’m just giving up because it got difficult, but the only reason I started this in the first place was because he wanted me to, yet he seems to have forgotten this. Even if we keep arguing they’ll never going to change my grade because they only take evidence from work done under supervised exam conditions and all of mine was done at home because of lockdown. Is it bad if I stop now?
Thank you, my job was alright too but just part time and felt like entry level tasks , I hadn't been in long it as I was made redundant last summer, its administration for the nhs - the new role is working within a project at a much higher level, I was able to use my previous work experience of projects to get me the interview and the role. I was in shock to be honest as I never in a million years thought I'd get it but now I'm so excited for a challenge and means I can increase my sons days at nursery and he gets more time with his little friends since all our usual groups are on hold for a while yet. So yeah, go for it as it just depends who you're up against and if they can see potential in you.Aahhhhh fab!! Well done. What industry are you in if you don’t mind me asking?
I don’t hate my current job, it’s decent but this one caught my eye

No this wasn't an issue at all, the role wasn't challenging, I get on well with my current colleagues but I can't say I'll miss them. What industry are you in? Are you close with your workmates? I still keep in touch with my colleagues from my previous work that closed last summer via a group chat. We all left at the same time though so it was a nice thing to carry on and we added a few more into our existing old team group chat.Congrats!
Will you miss your current job or the people you work with?
Do it! It could change your life.I’ve seen a job I want to apply for but I am not feeling brave enough
Do it! I've just applied for one that I'm nervous about, took some talking myself into! You can do itI’ve seen a job I want to apply for but I am not feeling brave enough
Im so sorry you’re in that place right now. Please reach out & speak to your GP, I’ve been there too & it does get better with a little help. Be kind to yourself.My mental healthkeep having horrible thoughts and stuff and making me panic and feel awful

Thankyou for replying, thats really kind of you.I saw both your related posts and I feel really bad for you, but what you see on tv is not really true. When doctors had surgeries as opposed to clinics there was a closer relationship, but with the government rules and targets there really isn't time to build a close relationship as in the past.
Nowadays in most cases patients are just that patients, before they were almost friends, you would ask about their families etc have a quick chat now it's all targets, and which patient will screw them up.
I wonder if people are waiting for the budget....high chance stamp duty relief will be extended so I reckon you‘ll get viewers sooner rather later .We put our house up for sale last week. Had loads of viewings booked in for the first week. Nobody made an offer and now the viewings aren’t coming in at all. Meh.
Just to say to save you from having to go to the gp if you’re prone to UTIs you can actually get antibiotics via superdrug and a couple of other places online. You have to fill out a form. You can also request to have a supply for future use if you’re confident at recognising the symptoms. Been a lifesaver for me!Thankyou for replying, thats really kind of you.
Yes i understand what you mean, my mum and I had that conversation this morning. Im 34 now, but i remember our old GP being like a family friend, he even helped deliver my older brother. And my mum said she used to be able to phone him up and talk to him without having an appointment.
I think im just being over sensitive and paranoid due to my mental health issues, and having a UTI on top of that has made me feel even worse. Plus it took me a lot to really open up and be honest about my hallucinations and his reply just seemed abit flippant. But ive been given Nitrofurantoin antibiotics for 3 days, so hopefully i will feel better soon
Go for it! You will never know unless you try!!I’ve seen a job I want to apply for but I am not feeling brave enough
