Yeah but i dont turn 18 till the month before I'll be going to uni so I'll be leaving then! It really is a bitch! :unimpressed:

Ahh! I'm turning 18 right in the middle of summer exams, so I can get a couple of months working in there :colondollar:

Look at retail, you don't get tips, but it's a better wage for most places :h:

that's what I wish I got!! People tend to tell me to keep the change but I have to give it to charity, which I know is the moral thing to do but still..

Most people to tip I suppose! Unless you work somewhere like a chain, in which case it may not be so much :rolleyes:

I don't know if your lesser spotted shrew allergy will affect your ability to drink coke ffs. I hate it when people expect me to know everything about every animal in the world too, I'm hardly here writing a zoology dissertation mate. :unimpressed:
