The course I completed on Friday, organized by a recruitment agency, entitled me to attend a sign up session for work with another employment agency, the one I applied to in the first place. Both agencies gave me similar application forms, both insisted on seeing my passport and other ID. I arrived in plenty of time for the registration interview only to find that I had been given the wrong address by the first agency as the second agency had moved to a new office. Fortunately the lady in the shop next door to the abandoned office knew where the new one was and I just about made it for the time my registration was due to start, and still got kept waiting for over half an hour. There was no mention at my interview of the course. The agency seemed oblivious it had even taken place. They reeled off lists of some of the jobs they offer, many of which involve working for as little as a single day before being laid off again. I told them I want more consistent hours and shifts than that. They took my paperwork and vaguely promised to contact me if work comes in. I won't be holding my breath for them. I bought lots of Christmas cards ready to start writing them for my friends, and came home. Youtube about work - Dolly Parton 9 To 5 Arthur Chappell
