IMO it's nigh on impossible, despite the illegality of direct discrimination under the Equality Act 2010, it still happens.

I have a shadow shift at Sheffield Royal Society for the Blind on Mappin St at 10 AM on Wednesday, but as much as I'd be willing to work, to get up early enough to get to Town before 10 AM, particularly on a Wednesday, I want paying for it ideally, and no, I am NOT lazy, I just value my sleepy time.

I applied for 3 different jobs on Indeed last week, and 2 of 'em are yet to even acknowledge my application.

There's also my age (late 40s) and the fact due to personal circumstances I can't work evenings or weekends, which counts the majority of jobs in retail out, despite me having experience and qualifications in the trade.

Thoughts?
