hi, had to tell someone :!: :!:
my beautiful grandaughter has just got her 1st job.
She's been to College for 2 years doing accountancy and they told her to get some practical work for a year.
That was 18months ago.
She's been working in Morrisons part-time for some money and now she's got a job. :D:D:D
I'm over moon cos she was losing confidence and getting really fed up.
It's not easy out there for the young uns

    working in Morrisons did her good actually cos she was quite shy and it's worked wonders for her confidence. She's been on deli/fish counters and lately in cafe.
    It all helps
    She hated smelly fish counter :!: :!:

    20th this month. She says she's very nervous which is understandable.
    She's done a dummy run on the train to Manchester and the tram from there to work so she knows how long it will take. Luckily the train station is only a few hundred yards from home.
    The moneys not bad for a first job either so I hope she likes it- she's not a quitter anyway.
