the longer you are there sprooty the more chance of being taken permenantly on I would have thought
agency work in this type of work is crap Ros....I can never understand a firm paying extra to an agency, rather than giving the person doing the work a fair rate of pay

other than the other person that's tryna muscle in on my job

Tomorrow is the verdict day, as far as I know

Yup, but not concentrating on what she should be doing
Pissing a lot of us off Wozzer

Rocking Ros posted:yes we do here
it's nothing to smile about 
Dame_Ann_Average posted:Sprout posted:Yeah, but it's only an extension, rather than being kept on (employed by NPS), although I'm obviously grateful for anything I can get
you don't know what will happen after this extension and while you're employed you really should be applying for other stuff...it's much easier to get a job in employment than not
I know what you're saying

Yep, it's madness ....do it in the NHS too....

the older you get you have no chance, they have raised the pension age for women knowing they are in the highest category least likely to find employment because of children, retraining etc...those with not enough stamps on have no chance.

I am the same dameee -luckily I don't want a permanent job but not fair to peeps who do - agency would charge the school ÂĢ2000 pounds if they wanted to keep a teacher on in the school from an agency

And what they don't take in to account is people like me, who have no dependants and think we're are over the hill. To my mind, it's people like me they should be employing to train the next generation to take over when we retire, but this friggin government just don't see it that way!
To me, age is experience
