Hmmmm...

I heard back from another job that I applied for, asking me to fill out a form and email it back to them.

Yet again, it is in Newcastle.  (Seriously, there's very few jobs in Middlesbrough worth a damn.)

Now I really want this job.  The advert says it was 35 hours a week.  Which would give me enough to commute for a couple of months and save up a deposit for moving through there.  Once I did that, there's the possibility of overtime and possibly moving onto a backshift like I was on at Barclay's.

It turns out that I may also actually already have a lead on a flat through there.

In the email they said that the job, should I get it, would start on April 18.  Which is fine with me as it means that I won't need to ask for time off work the day after Wrestlemania and I won't need to ask for time off for the Big Tees Sleepout (don't forget to sponsor me using the button below).

It also says that the job will be 20 hours a week.

Which puts me in a bit of a catch 22.  I can't save up a deposit and afford the bus or train pass and my bills.  I could afford to move through if I don't commute.  (I actually found a thing online to work out how much I'd get pro rata.)

I'm going ahead with the application.  Partly because there's a chance that I could get bumped up/do overtime before/after my shifts, partly because if I don't and the jobcentre find out I can be sanctioned but mostly because it sounds like a good place to work.

But I'm not sure if I should mention something when I email the form back, if I should wait until I get an interview (if I do), see if they say anything about it or if I should just keep quiet.

Thoughts?
