I worked at Express Gifts a few years ago as a Packer and loved it, one of the best jobs I had... plenty of fun, frolics and banter to be had there... Don't put it down, money isn't bad and they are quite good with you.

If your willing for a bit of a bus ride there are temp crimbo jobs coming up at debenhams in Blackburn, pretty good pay for 16 years olds im moving up to 5 quid an hour in a couple of weeks and saying the lads at JJB only get £3.50 per hour its not too bad pay.

have you tryed the hyndburn borough council for a job as a street cleaner or bin man they are always takeing foke on there and its not a bad place to work for so give it a try my freind

Have you actually tried the job centre? And try doing door to door in town centre. what ever the shop is ask.

Mate, I'm in exactly the same position as you. Exactly the same. I must have applied to about 15 places over the last 3 months and I haven't heard back from any of them.

Having said that, I can't work Saturdays but, to be honest, I'm willing to work evenings and Sundays (bank holidays, christmas eve, etc) or whatever else.

I've found it to be one of the most disheartening things ever. A lot of my mates seem to have just got jobs like that *clicks finger* and I'm left here struggling. At this rate, there'll be no Xmas presents for my family and mates this year. Think yourself lucky that you have a site like this available to you, mind. We don't have anything like this for Darlington.

All the best to you.

Try hyndburn council for the bins or for street cleaning they are good jobs and there is a pay packet at the end of the week ...try it .

I say, it's the ghost of Fred Elliot.

Good on ya!!! Everyone quite happy to have a go at youngsters that cant be a*sed working so fair play to you!

Might be worth trying the market stalls, basically a trip round town asking. Mcdonalds probs a good place to try as well as theyre generally taking on.

Hope you get something soon!!
