I’ve worked for cinemas, supermarkets and a newspaper company through Slivers. But my favourite buyer is a big Housing Association. Everyone in their office is so helpful and ready to teach me new things. They’ve just booked me for the next two days! Also, I’ve been doing a lot of night time bookings for other buyers because it is the end of term and all my assignments are done.

I am studying Access to Nursing at Waltham Forest College. After that I’d like to go to Medical School. I want to be a doctor. I didn’t have any experience of employment before Slivers but I’ve already been through paid training by three buyers. Then when I get a booking I already know how to do the job.

My second favourite buyer is one of the cinema chains. I love movies. I never get to see a film when I am on a booking for them. But you have to go into the screens to check temperature and that there’s no disturbances, so you see odd bits of every movie they’re showing.
