Just that really.

I start on 7th November and was wondering when I will get paid first.

Am trying to plan our money so we don't get in a mess over xmas.

Oh, excellent, nutty! Didn't hear that you'd got it .

If they pay weekly in arrears (likely) you will get your first pay at the end of the 2nd week.

Thanks Jan thought as much.

Am very nervous but so glad we aren't going to have to worry over xmas.

Oh another question...

Am i likely to get stopped emergency tax ??

I know i shouldn't be taxed as I will only earn around £90 a week, but I know sometimes when you start a new job they stop emergency tax.

You won't have a P45, so they will give you a P46 to complete, stating that this is your only job and that should mean you get a proper tax code straight away; but even if you have to pay emergency tax to begin with, if their payroll dept is efficient you should get a rebate before Christmas.

Ok, thanks Jan.

(I started in a weekly paid job recently btw and that's how it happened for me, and that was in a company not renowned for its efficiency, I should think Wilko's much better.)

Hey, you will get discount too, won't you! Fantastic!
