I have been totally up front and honest with my boss about starting cm he completly understands my reasons and has been great with me.
Then there is the office manager she has just come back from mat leave and heard that I will be leaving, I havent handed in notice yet and boss is fine with this, well office manager said to me yesterday they could just ask me for a date when I am finishing as I am mucking them about :angry:
I was fizzing told her that I didnt need to say I was going and could have held off until I put my notice in before they knew anything.
I am desperate to start cm and really dont need any hassle ready just to hand notice in cos this girl is vv friendly with the md and likes to cause trouble I have been doing most of her job (really well) while she has been off and I think she resents this a bit.
2nd part of moan
I have handed out about 100 business cards and have ad in my car and on my gate and have told EVERYONE and still only 1 enquiry who never called back :panic:
Sorry very long

Someone is jealous because they are not in control.

As to business - it seems to of slowed down everywhere - keep going and once you get your first enquiry the rest will follow

She just sounds like a cow to me lol.:mad:

I hate it when people try to make your life difficult-nobody complained when
she wanted to have a baby and go off on maternity leave, so why is she trying to make things harder for you!

Just think you will be out of there soon-work WILL come along! Then you won't have to see her again!!

Hope you get work realllllly soon, you have probably done this... but maybe put advert up in all local schools, & maybe notice in your car or window of your home??

xx:o :o

The childrens information service of your local council and childcare.co are both good places to advertise.


Shops schools pre-schools and the local paper are also good places to advertise as well

Ooh what a narky :censored:

Just ignore her she is def jealous cos you can do her job better than she can and will want you out so she feels more in control

Your first mindees will come along soon. As everyone is finding just now. Business is slow. TBH im worried about this too when i get registered but since that seems to be taking forever maybe things will have picked up by then!!
Stay happy Joy and fingers x

Thinking about doing a leaflet drop there is another cm just reg here as well and we where going to put both our details on it but i'm not too sure I want to do that, what do you think ?
