Murphy And His laws!

Been unemployed now for about a month after leaving my job of 11 years with no sign of any offshore work coming up.

Finally decided to get off my backside and went to see a local, small hotel and see if they had anything going. Started this morning as head chef, finished at half 2 and was going to be back in for 5.

Got home, had a call from another company offering a start on Monday as a delivery driver!

So, head chef working split shifts 5 days a week with no chance of a weekend off for ages and having to work the Christmas eve, day and boxing day etc etc or driving all day, slightly longer hours, better money, weekends and nights off etc?! What would you choose?!

[sotonjames]

take the driving job and have some kind of life is my advice

[RobW]

I'm gonna! The last job I was in was not split shifts but it did involve working almost every Friday & Saturday night and early Sunday morning.

Driving job for me due to being out and about all day instead of being stuck in the kithenit also helps the cash is better and you will have a social life

[glynn]

it has to be the driving job if i had to choose
good luck

Chef - 10-2 (sometimes 2.30) then back in at 5 til about 9.30, 5 days a week, no weekends off.

Driving, Monday - Friday, 8-7 (usually home by 6), optional Saturdays and £3k a year more!

Not ideal but at least I will have a social life, more so around Christmas time!
