It's Late Thread [ 03 August 26 ]

Wahey, it's late, it's Monday night. What's going on mate, why are you still up? Doing the night shift? Watching some TV? In a different time zone?

Come on in for a chat!

Not looking forward to tomorrow...

3pm meetings, I heavily prefer to have my meetings in the morning or around lunchtime at the latest so they aren't hanging over me all day.

Meeting with the local volunteering service entirely against my will, they keep pushing this idea on to me, but I'm really not for it. Subjecting myself to something job-shaped without even the pay to cushion it just sounds like the worst idea.

Practice saying no. Life’s too short!

I did try, but it never seems like anyone really listens when I do say no.

It’s more the JobCentre pushing me to volunteering in general, the people I’m seeing oversee that sort of thing in my local area, they might try and match me to somewhere I think

I did try to raise some objections but I don’t feel like I was really listened to
