Yer, i mad sure that my business was close, im too tight to pay £5.00 a day to get to norwich and back, for 2 week that would be £50 just on transport...
I would do it if they paid, but thats a fair bit of cash...

Yer, they dont have to pay you, but i think that it would be nice after working for free for 2 weeks, they should give you a little something..

Wow, it doesnt sound too bad, our school aint too slow at sortin it out, there just is not enough places, there is no jobs left and 128 people to place, so i was quite lucky...
I could of messed around and got out of school for 2 weeks but that would have been boring, this will be a great experience to what a real job is like...

a tip for work experience, if your asked to make a coffee, make it really strong, if its a bloke your giving it to they will feel that they are to macho to admit its too strong and therefor not ask u to make it again.
