Hi, I'm in a really tricky position at the moment. My daughter is in her last term of reception at a private school.
I had worked on the bank in a care home for about 2 years. I handed in my notice in March as they employed more staff and the bank shifts dried up, and I wasn't getting any work.
I applied for a new job and was sucessful, but they were waiting for a reference for ages. They've been trying to contact the manager from about April. She is never there and never calls back. I'd only met her twice in the 2 years I worked there and one of those was at interview.
I recently phoned to chase it up and managed to speek to her deputy who said she'd sent it. I called the other home and they said she's only stated the dates I worked and signed it. I can't think of any reason she'd do that, but the company can't accept it as a reference.
She did give a reference to an agency who I'm now with, but I'm still not getting much work and it's unpredictable. I'm so annoyed I can't start this permanant job.
The problem is, time is running out and I have a school bill to pay at the beginning of September. I could pay it monthly, but I'm not sure if I'm going to get work regularly enough to do it.
We're going to look at a state school tomorrow, and we've got a few more to see after that.
I don't mind taking her out and home eding her until she gets a place at another school. I'm just so worried I'l have a bill that I have no way of paying.
