zero to hero...

I applied for work somewhere 4 times over the last 12 months. job kept coming up so I applied when ever it did. minium wage type job, nothing fancy. but an alrite job driving, hence why i applied for it.

turned me down every time, thats fair enough, it happends. Now thay have emailed asking if i can work for free for them during this outbreak…

odd thay didnt want to know me yesterday now there calling for me to work for free and be one of there heros…isnt that just the way the world turns.

Say yes after you’ve checked that all your household bills and living costs will be free as well.

I suppose it could lead to more work maybe post coronavirus. Seems a little cheeky. Is it for a company who will be making money or just providing a service?

that throught crossed my mind too. chance of a foot in the door, prove my worth and all that. my instincts tell me otherwise. thay will use me while thay need me, then when its all over thayll drop me like thay never knew me. thats how that will play out lol. if i wasnt good enough yesterday how come im good enough today…? lol

If you want to do volunteer work, go to your local hospital, not to a company who will be earning, but won’t pay you, tell them, you want paying, see how there attitude changes

This has to be a wind up. You are on a professional forum. That means we are paid for what we do. If you start working for nothing ,when do you stop working for nothing?
