Hi there,

As I said in the title, my 15 hour a week minimum wage job has a 6 week notice (?!) and I’ve just been offered a full time salary role that would like me to start ASAP. I don’t want to risk this role because of my minimum wage job, so what can I do to get out of my notice period?

I work for a small business, and I imagine this is to cover them due to busier periods but currently they are very quiet and will be until Christmas. I am the only employee that does my role also.

Any help would be appreciated. This job offer is a dream role for me.

Thanks!
