A friend of mine started in a supermarket sacking groceries. Now he’s the bakery manager making 100k he and his wife are thinking about retiring now. They’re only 50

Probably depends on what you value most.
The supermarket may not be ideal, but pubs are closing at a rate of knots so the chances of having your hours cut to the point of not making it worth it could be quite high

Lot of things to consider here. How does the pay/benefits compare? Travel time? How much do you/would you enjoy each job? Who are you working with?
You’re the one who will have to live with the decision, only you can decide. Do what you think will make you happy.

It depends on the schedule, if you think you'll feel better with that you can try.

@MrGomco it sounds like loads more fun that working in a shop

@Muffintopgina So you've already taken the position for the new job?

Unless you have future plans in the supermarket it’s not as high intensity as a bar maid but if you need money do bar maid they both have a future

@Muffintopgina so what you could rise up and be a manager or a supervisor, you got to start somewhere

There are probably more opportunities for career advancement at the grocery store.

If you get tips at the pub, that seems a lot more lucrative… if you can put up with the drunks.
Muffintopgina · 26-30, F
@Softandsweet2 lol I have to deal with loads of them when I go out on a weekend
Softandsweet2 · 31-35, F
@Muffintopgina Yeah, but you’re probably drunk then too - makes a lot of difference.
Muffintopgina · 26-30, F
@Softandsweet2 I am yeah

You would find many patrons who seem to be appealing to you.

The hours in the pub will ruin your social life.

give it a try, nothing to lose

I would say no, drunks are a drag when your sober

Depends. Does it pay better? Will you get better hours? Are there any other benefits?

Just as long as the landlord allows you to be a sexy barmaid.
