Hey, I've been out of education for five years so I was not able to get a reference from my old college, so I've had to ask my boss at work, but she doesn't really know me that well and doesn't know what to write.
I've given her details of my A-Level results, but I'm not really sure how she can comment on my suitability for my chosen course (English) when my job has nothing to with it (retail/customer service),
