You probably won’t get C19 and Hearts probably won’t get horsed by the Vermin. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal Mail are always looking for part time posties, always overtime too. Or Royal Mail are taking on temps/casuals over the christmas period at the sorting at the Mail Centre Cultins Road Sighthill, good rates and lots of overtime.

I don't drive but the sorting sounds alright. I'm going to update my CV tomorrow then do my best to forget about it for a couple of days. Try and squeeze some birthday fun in to the weekend and enjoy the game. Then full steam ahead in the job hunt on Monday. Onwards and upwards.

Greedy Jambo Posted October 29, 2020 Author Share Posted October 29, 2020 Well that's me on the new version of Furlough, working 1 day a week. Better than a kick in the balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) Interesting for those of us made redundant recently with the reintroduction of furlough... https://www.cipd.co.uk/knowledge/fundamentals/emp-law/redundancy/coronavirus-guide "Redundancy dismissals may be an unfair dismissal, if they take place in circumstances where an employer did not properly consider alternatives, including retaining the employee on furlough or the Job support scheme if possible and the Job retention bonus explained below."

Apply here; https://jobs.royalmailgroup.com/job/EDINBURGH-Christmas-Casual-Edinburgh-Mail-Centre-EH11-4YY/616473401/ Royal mail offered me a temp sorting position. Said only had night shift Mon-Fri left, £9.20ph. Never took it though. Full time at Sainsburys earning 10p more ph and not doing night shift was a no brainer to turn down Royal mail.
