Hi,
I'm currently working 52wks (apart from annual leave) a year full-time in an office for a Local Authority. I've applied for - and very luckily - been called in for an interview for a f/t term-time only PA/Secretary role in a junior school. This is 1st December.

Working term time only would give me more time to rest throughout the year and would ensure I get regular breaks. I feel that would help my joints as I'm struggling rather now.

Wish me luck please? Thanks.

Grace.

    Of course I wish you luck, Grace. It would clearly make life so much easier for you. Here's hoping.

    Hi Grace,

    Good luck with the interview and I hope that you get the position. When I cut back to working part time I did feel a lot better although with travelling time it only gave me a few more hours at home but the main thing was less pressure.

    Fingers crossed for you,

    I do hope that you get the job, Grace. It would be ideal, those holidays to re-charge your batteries. I should think a good few people will be wanting that job!

    I shall keep my fingers crossed for you on the 1st.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    Good luck Grace,
    My interview tip is to make sure you are practised and prepared - maybe do a practice interview this weekend with someone. I hope you get it - I know that I wouldn't be able to work full time any more.
    best of luck

    This is even more important now as I found out this morning I'm at risk of being made redundant again for the second year in a row. So sickening as we all went through this last year, having to re-apply for jobs. At no time did management say the jobs we were allocated were time limited in this way. Feeling rather fed up with everything today.
    Grace.

    Chin up girl, it's the interview tomorrow and that needs to be your focus now - blow 'em away with your utter suitability for the job, yes? Good luck, I will be thinking of you. DD

    DD is spot on, Grace. Go for it. May the AC force be with you.
