If you are starting at 5am and only doing 8 hours you'll be finished by lunchtime! With shelf stacking you don't need to be wide awake so being parttime you could get away with less sleep than normal, catch a few winks in the afternoon and still be able to enjoy your evening.

It's great until you work all day, get a call into the managers office at 5 to 5 and by 5pm find yourself walking to the bus stop unable to call your wife because they took back the phone. Been there, done that, the higher you are, the harder you fall. The last sales job I had I was generating masses of low cost high profit business, getting praised highly by CEO's of far eastern partnership companies etc but was the first to go when the going got tough.

If you want to pass a few minutes, go to the B&Q job site, they have an online job application and a test to see how you would fit in. You dont have to complete, and send off at the final stage but they do tell you the results of the test.

I failed, on a couple of the sections, so thats me finished!!
