So ive recently got a job at a retail shop. I dont know what to take with on the first day of work.

Do i take a passport, birth certificate and a driving license?

What do you think?

Just take one of them, I don't know why you would need them, but just take one.

Generally I've found on the first day of any jobs it's better to take too much ID, then not enough, only show them it if they ask.

If you have your passport and driving license you won't need your birth certificate as well.
If you have your national insurance card or an old pay slip I would take that too.

I'm 19 btw, I was hoping to get at least £6.08. What do you reckon?

Minimum wage for you is £4.98, so it'll be up to your employer.

Take id and make sure you look smart as you might have to have a pic taken for an id card. Obv take lunch or money if theres somewhere nearby.

What do you mean by two accounts.

Also I would be disappointed if its £4.98. Is there any way I can negotiate the wages?

Goldenboy_786 started this thread but you keep replying to people as if you're the thread starter.

Lots of places pay the minimum wage - you won't be able to negotiate it. Shops are businesses, and the less they have to pay staff, the more profits the bosses get. I was at a cafe and they paid us the minimum wage, but at least we got tips. Plus it was quite a posh cafe so we got quite good tips.
