Florist News

so we have it easy with our floristry courses here we can go work in florist shops before any qualifications

Really.
Is it not diffecult to apply/get a job in a flowershop. if one have no what is the word. experience or training with flowers.
it is overhere, but it won´t be long before there´s trouble. It´s hard to get a place to work, so one can go to the flowerschool. now I don´t know the word again. apprentice. thats the word.
And it´s bitting the buisnes´ tale. because everyone want´s a finished florist.
But not an apprentice.
in our little area, there´s only 6 apprentice, that I know of. and we are 29 flowershops in this area, that´s connected to interflora.

But here, everyone who want´s to can start up a buisness. or be freelance.So we have a little liberty.

But they are not allowed to be a member of a service chain like Interflora, before they have staff, with floristry papers or at least five years working experience.

Just thought I'd say hi, joined today after spotting a link on the flowerchat forum. I've been looking for one of these forums for ages then suddenly I find two - no idea how I haven't spotted this one before.

Hi Leila,

Big Welcome

Just wanted to say hi, I also wasn't aware of any sites like this & then in one day find 2. I am really looking forward to reading & taking part on this site.

Hi Kez and Leila.
Welcome here. I too was looking in ages for a forum like this, I couldnt find one in Dk but found this and its really very good.I'm sure you will enjoy your self.But beware!!!!!!!! It steals time ( hours and hours )

Hi & thank you for your welcome, I am sure you are right that this could be addictive. Sorry it took a while to respond, still trying to get used to the site.

Yes, you can find yourself spending a lot of time here, but in some ways i still seem to get as much work done. It used to be real boring working on my own and some days couldn't wait to get home. Now can have a bit of a laugh, help people out a bit, learn a few things i didn't know and somehow makes you work a bit faster in between. So as long as you can balance things out it doesn't really become a problem. Unlike my kids who spend 5 hours every night on MSN!

5 hours, is that enough you think? I'm sure that my daughter have her msn on all day when she is at home and maybe in school too.Not all her friends goes at the same school
But you are right,This is'nt a time waster.That was not what I meant.It's fun,one can learn,give advice,take advice,a lot of laughs and for my part,learn a lot of english. but it is adictive.which not have to be a bad thing

Just say if you want us to help you with the English bit. Anyone can rewrite your sentences as it would be said in English, but wouldn't want to appear to be having a go at you, for fear of upsetting you. So you would need to say "Yes, I would like you to do that whenever you can as it will help me with my English"

Does that make sense?
