A month or so ago I applied for a few jobs, including a job as a room attendant at a nice hotel near me. In the interim I interviewed for, was offered and accepted a job at Ann Summers. I have worked there a week and I love it. Shifts are variable, but the latest I work is 8:30pm. My boyfriend is looking after my DC for my late shifts, and family are looking after them at weekends.
I got an email yesterday inviting me to interview for the room attendant job. The latest shift there finishes at 4pm, which would reduce my need for childcare. I could do the work to a good standard.
I don't really want to go for the interview though. I've got this job, I enjoy it, I like my workmates, I get a great discount
Also, in getting this job I've come off income support so have had to contact jobcentre, tax credits, housing benefit etc, and changing so soon after would mess up all that as I'd have to change info again and God knows they are capable of messing up the simplest of changes on their systems.
Aibu to refuse an interview for a job that would reduce my reliance on other people in favour of staying in a job that needs more childcare but is really enjoyable?
