I have a sock drawerWhere else does one keep their socks?
Or am I the only one here who dedicates a drawer in her chest of drawers to socks?!?!?!

We've had a meeting already but as it's a complete change it is hard to know exactly what the role will entail.
Anyway my application is in and we'll have to wait and see now, they want 5 per shift so it's a big investment.

See if you can get assurances of what will happen to you if they change their mind on this new set up. Will you be able to return to your current position?

No Pogs today !
They seem to have vacated the scene. But the good news is that some dollops of spawn have started to change shape and are starting to elongate .

As Saltydog said, voice your uncertainties and ask to take this on for a probationary period until both sides are happy it is working. A decent company will let you step back into your current roll with no loss of face if you decide it is not for you.

@potsy - Do they tell you how many of your past trainees stayed on in the company?
Bearing in mind that, for instance, if you have trained say twenty people, then I would guess that two left because they did not like the job, or decided to work elsewhere. Another two, again a guess, were not up to the doing the work, according to management, (nothing to do with your training). I am thinking of the bloke who wouldn't stop talking and had a problem with concentration.
What I am trying to say is that if something like 75% of your trainees stay on, it gives you an idea of how good you are at training people. You still have to enjoy the work. You say they want five trainers per shift, so would you be doing it every shift?
As other have said, is there a probationary period on this?

I've just come back from a 4 mile cycle ride. It wasn't uneventful as first of all the QR on the saddle slipped and then the rear wheel QR slipped just as I was entering a roundabout . I was determined to carry on but the rear kept slipping so I did my short route

I have a 75% success rate, the other 25% was let go a few months back.
The probation period is already in place for the ones that get the jobs, 3 months.
