You can do this 👊 This is Your time to use that intelligent brain that comes across so apparent each vlog. ADMIRE YOU,for the journey so far ,even with health is issues which are disappearing the lighter you are. I wish as we all do on here ,good luck,good strength, but more important.....be kind to you,as you are the backbone of your wonderful family . Catch you on the next ...whenever Carla 👍💟

[@annemariedevonald1616]

I work 36 - 48 hours a week as a nurse. My house is in hell of a mess half the time. Always seem to be behind with something. My advice is don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Socialising in work has its draw backs as well. Some people you work with get on your nerves lol xx

[@ginashiel105]

Congratulations on your new job....hope all goes well for you....

[@Stall69UK]

My friends in the office corporate world say that filling a receptionist role is one of the most difficult, because it requires a multiple set of skills (and personality) that are quite rare to find. So I imagine your new employer is thrilled to have found you. Good Luck! Xxx

[@kitchenworker446]

that is a nice thing to say and I imagine very true...Carla, you will be great at this role.x

[@marisayoung8670]

Congrats on the new job and change of direction for you. It all sounds a very positive and exciting future ahead. Both you and Alex have had some changes of late. Please don’t let KZbin restrict your plans - enjoy the fun and security of a new job. Best wishes.

[@suzannewise7456]

Fantastic news Carla. You will rock! Keep us updated in how you are getting on please

[@older-wiser]

Brilliant Carla, that's fantastic news. I'm so pleased for you. X

[@bethannesam8671]

congratulations on your new job really pleased for you ignore other peoples comments you are a very kind open person good luck looking forward to seeing how you get on take care x

[@dawng.6497]

I had such a job around your age it was interesting and very challenging…but fun too! I very much enjoyed it and my work family. You will be such an amazing asset to this business! They are so very lucky to have gotten you. I am quite jealous really, I wish I worked there myself so I could have you as my new coworker! You will be getting a guaranteed wage and that will give you so much more comfort. Now that I am retired I think back and marvel at how much I accomplished while I was working full time! I will miss you so very much but anything that might come up on you tube will be treasured even more 🥰❤️🇨🇦. Best of luck

[@joannaallsop5926]

Hi Carla so pleased you've got a job but will be so sad if you don't do some blogs ..the cost of living had rocketed ...and you need a steady income thTs understandably hope you enjoy your new job and do well look forward to your blogs xxjo ..thanks ❤👍

[@dianemcdonald5672]

Congratulations……..happy for you! Your employer will be very lucky to have you.

[@ruthie2222]

Congratulations Carla! 🥳 Completely understand why you’re going back to work full time. So lucky to even get a job in this day and age! Well done you! 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️

[@michelles2299]

There are loads of vacancies in the NHS they can't fill

[@victoriafoley7470]

Firstly: Congratulations again.🎉🎉 Completely understand your need for a lifestyle change brought about mainly by circumstances. Secondly: Those of us that have got to know you as a "friend" (despite never having met you) are so happy for you and wish you every success. Thirdly: So pleased that this is not goodbye but "as and when my friend". Fourthly: I think this will rejuvenate your weight-loss. It is so easy to procrastinate when you have unlimited time to do things to the point where you don't do things and eat something nice to compensate for not having done what you should have done! (I do this and am considering if I could get a part-time job). With you on the phone out of room too. It's incredible how having it within 6 inches affects sleep! Lastly: We aren't going anywhere....we're sticking with you because we're made out of glue!! 🎵🎶 BTW - you DID cover the 5 Ws....who, what, why, when and WOW instead of how! Wishing you every success and happiness as you open a new door. You will smash the new job for sure! Did you refer to your guts, determination/willpower in succeeding in losing so much weight in your job interview? I hope so as it is a massive string to your bow in any prospective employers eyes. WELL DONE CARLA. Catch you later!! (A dear friend was renowned for saying that everytime he departed...it's touchingly enscribed on his final departure resting place). Good luck! 😗

[@Katie-uj8xz]

Yes! Hadn't thought about the weight loss and how this big change will definitely help you on the next step x

[@judithsmith4979]

Congratulations Carla good luck in your new job take care

[@junecornish6049]

Congratulations,I am sure you will do well.xxx

[@carolcureton4516]

Good luck Carla. Il be waiting for yr updates along the way. Just don't burn yourself out, its going to be very different for you. All the best 🙂

[@cherylparish2232]

Congratulations Carla, I hope you really love it xx

[@merrilynss]

Congratulations Carla, hope it all goes well for you. Good luck!

[@juliajones2283]

Congratulations on your job Carla, I’m sure you will be an asset to the company you are going to be working for. I hope things work out as you hope and I’m sure you will have to get used to your new routine. I always enjoy your vlogs and your personality on here so will be glad to watch you whenever and whatever you post. Xx

[@Cindy7777777]

Congratulations Carla, on your new job! I have no doubt you'll be excellent at it!!! Hope you still make vlogs, if you can!!! So glad it's close to home!!! I wasn't worried at all about the pups because I know what a good fur baby mom you are!!!!!!!! Sending hugs to you from across this wide pond!!!

[@SimoneWhipp]

Good luck with your new job Carla! You will make a fantastic receptionist/administrator. You are very personable and like-able. I will miss your regular videos but hopefully you will still do KZbin but as more of a hobby. x

[@nikkijohnston2891]

Congratulations Carla ! ❤️

[@paperandtwine]

Good for you, Carla, wishing you all the best in your new career. I will always watch what ever you upload, how ever regularly or not, that will be 🎉💐🥂🍾😘

[@janettesinclair6279]

Congratulations on the new job, Carla! You seem to have most things planned and sorted out for the future, and I'm sure you will enjoy the work and meeting folk. We will all still be here when you put your videos up, looking forward to all your entertaining chat. Wishing you every success in your new venture!

[@jackieegerton7446]

Congratulations Carla 🎉 A new start for you with a regular and consiststant pay packet, will definitely releave some financial worries. As everyone has said take things easy when you have your days off and do the things you enjoy. If the housework/eBay/you tube doesn’t get done while your settling into a new routine don’t worry as there will be plenty of time when you are settled and in a routine. Made up for you xxx🥰

[@freckles2437]

Good luck! I am also hoping to get back to work for similar reasons, bit scary as haven't worked for someone else for over 10 year's but eBay is very unpredictable. Jo 🙂

[@beanfeast57]

Good luck with the new job. Finances are getting tight for everyone now. I hope the people you work with are nice and friendly and that you are happy there. Thanks for all the time you put inot making the videos. Shell X

[@tracygurr8771]

Congratulations on your new job, having a regular wage other than ebay is reassuring. I have been hoping to go full time on ebay, but i just don't have the nerve, its so hit and miss and that doesn't pay the bills. So i haven't been brave enough to leave my employed work. Our main jobs pay our bills and feeds us and ebay gives me some savings, for holidays, days out etc. You are going to be a very busy lady. xx

[@lin4579]

Congratulations. They’re lucky to have you x

[@Fat2Health]

Congratulations on getting the job. You'll be surprised just how much you will fall into a routine. Just don't stress when something can't get done. I have a job of teaching in a school during the week, gigs at the weekend and KZbin inbetween. So glad you are not leaving. I love my Carla fix when I get the chance to catch up. You are so calming and lovely. Your fans won't desert you for sure. ❤️🥰 X

[@gillharvey8136]

Carla you've clearly thought this out and it's fantastic that you've got the job. It will take time to get into new routines but overall financial security will take such a lot of pressure off you that all the effort will be worth it. I'm glad we're not losing you from KZbin and I'm looking forward to new- style Carla blogs.

[@Helenmalaine]

Good Luck Carla! I started a full time job last month and it’s hard at first but you soon get into a routine. I hadn’t worked full time for approx 15 years 😂 It’s a lot to take on learning a new job etc but you will soon get used to it. Hope it goes really well and look forward to any updates 💕

[@angelawhitehouse8066]

When my youngest daughter who is now 45 first went back to full time work she was shattered for the first few weeks but adjusted eventually. I think you've made the right decision and I wish you all the luck and success in your new job. I hope you can still keep us posted, if only occasionally but shall understand if you have to put things on hold for a bit.

[@gibride87]

Congratulations

[@carolineibbetson5395]

Congratulations Carla on your new job x in the current climate you do right to take control financially xxx good luck with it all xxx

[@Gdre123]

Congratulations again Carla. Sounds like you have a plan. Good luck. xx

[@sheilas52]

So excited for you. I always say you get more done when you have more to fit in. Perhaps this path change will be the nudge your body needs. Hope you know what I mean. Good luck Tuesday.

[@michelles2299]

Good luck with the job, I hope your colleagues are nice to work with 🙏 you might get a lot of motivation with weight loss journey etc there will be others on the same path

[@opus0070]

Congrats Carla! I'm glad the dogs are going to be catered for, remember to pace yourself at the beginning, I found it quite exhausting going back to work, took about 3 months to get used to the new routine. All the best for next week. Take care

[@gigilou]

Huge congratulations once again on your new job lovely!! 🎉🎉 Got my cuppa at the ready. So pleased and happy for you and this new chapter in your life ❤️ Will absolutely still be subscribed and support whatever videos you do xxx

[@tinahaydon5790]

Congratulations on your new job. I do feel going to work, albeit part time, brings structure and routine to my life. I'm quite an insular person so work is good for my mental, emotional and physical well-being 🙏🏻

[@clareturner7867]

Hope the job goes well Carla x

[@jorobinson8835]

Good luck Carla! Hope all goes well tomorrow. Thank you for sharing your new beginning. Jo x

[@deborahr2236]

Well done Carla 🎉 good luck in your new role, they are lucky to have you. This is your life so do want you need to do to enjoy it and feel secure, change isn’t always easy and takes time and energy so don’t overdo it. Take care and will enjoy whatever videos you can do ❤️

[@lilandalf]

Carla I am so pleased for you I hope everything goes as planned x

[@blighty3248]

Hello Carla...just wantef to tell you you have made me smile ...i have been rewatching your videos

[@patgoodchild8045]

You are right….if you want something done, ask a busy person. Your new colleagues are lucky to have them join them, good luck x

[@hopesprings7812]

Congratulations on your new job. You and Mrs M gave me a lifeline in 2018 when I needed a regular small income stream and I opened a eBay shop, it worked well enough for the first 2-3 years but is definitely on the wane now. Luckily I have an alternative source of income on the horizon. You are so right about how much we end up with after eBay have taken their cut, stock costs ,packaging etc. My profit is around 50%. Anyway,waffling, well done and good luck with your job😊

[@kat7777]

You're talking sense and predicting what's best and right choice for you 👏 👏

[@susanlewis1953]

Brilliant video - good luck. Financial stability is key. Thanks Sue 😀

[@veronicapawson5686]

Well done Carla on the new job. I think you’ve done the right thing and have YT and the Bay for spends x

[@donnalawton8729]

Good luck Carla and congratulations on your job . One of the points you made about working from home and not being out in the real world I can totally agree with . My husband worked at home as a graphic designer for years and it wasn't doing him good an opportunity came up to take over a gardening round and he took it that business has grown and he loves it and he's a different person he hardly does andy graphic design now as he much prefers his new job .❤️

[@adaly5115]

Hi Carla the best of luck and go girl go. I am very new to your channel and I enjoy you very much Anna.

[@joanhannah8062]

Congratulations Carla…I hope the job is great for you and that you really enjoy it..x

[@nete1209]

Congratulations you are going to be fantastic. I can totally understand why you have decided to do it. Hope this isn't goodbye and we will still see you on here when you can. X

[@MissChatterton]

Congratulations Carla! I hope it goes well for you. I'm considering getting a part-time job, mainly to get me out of the house more! Don't think I'll ever go back to full-time again. Had too many bad experiences, unfortunately. It's so nice to know that we will always have reselling to fall back on though and could walk out of a job if we really wanted to!

[@sharronlewis3429]

Congratulations 💐 on your new job Carla, your right, If you like to do nice things, days out with friends & family, you have to work to do it, you do what's best for You & your family, looking forward to hearing all about your first day, 😇 & I'm thrilled your still doing your calorie crush, you have to keep a roof over your head, & going on to benefits is degrading I know I've 🐝 been there , as if its your fault you've lost your job. Well done, put yourself first, . Your getting on in life. With out a Bloody man. 🤭

[@ClaireTee123]

Well done Carla, your decision makes sense on so many levels, good luck with the new job, I'm sure you will be fab!

Congratulations. Hope your new job makes all the good changes you are hoping for. I work and do eBay. That eBay is a little bit of icing on the cake.

[@juliepearson1685]

Hi Carla well done on your new job everything has become hard with the cost of living.ebay is great but has become a lot harder to earn a living. Good look on your new job.👍

[@Suzieplook]

Good luck Carla you will be fab in your new job, it will take some settling in so be kind to yourself where you tube is concerned, we will be hear waiting to hear how it’s going 💕😘 X

[@elizabethgarner3349]

Wise lady! Think you will sine and be a great asset to any company. Hope you achieve all of the things on your list, especially the social ones be cause they are really important. Besides which, surely, a 'happy Carla' will make 'happy videos' for You Tube. Best wishes - have fun! Liz

[@sandralowe2874]

Hope it all goes well with the job👍 will miss your videos if you can’t make them but there is only 24 hours in a day and so if you can’t make a video we will have to get over it 😕😲😂👍

[@shirleymeighan2746]

Congrats Carla, I’m sure the new job will be great for you and you’ll be such an asset. I’m in exactly the same boat, actively seeking a job after 5 years full time on eBay. The ups and downs have just become too stressful. Just looking for part time as I’ve a very needy puppy to fit everything around too 😂

[@margaretspence109]

Congratulations on your new job and I hope you really enjoy it.

[@juliehandley8963]

Congratulations my lovley ,im sure its going to be a big change but hopefully one you will enjoy and be happy at, I look forward to hearing all about it . Xx

Thanks for the update Carla Wishing you all the very best in your new job 🙂🙂🙂xx

[@timothypeacock2737]

You have done the right thing,and you have done it at the right time I think by the autumn people will be out there getting extra jobs to pay for living as they have done before the rise in the cost of living The writing on the wall at the moment is bleak on money matters Rebecca and Tim xx

[@tinawhynot8893]

Congratulations on your new job Carla, that’s so exciting 👏👏👏👏👏 Wishing you all the very best as you start this new chapter. Take care and good luck!

[@heathertinkler3812]

Congraulations and well done for adapting and making changes to fit your needs. It can be easy to get stuck in a rut and think change will come, but sometimes you have to make that change.

Congratulations on your new job, totally agree working from home means you do procrastinate about household tasks. Returning to office definitely helped me compartmentalise tasks into work and home. Whatever you post on youtube I will watch avidly. Again congratulations and looking forward to your next video If you haven't already heard of the organised mum method please do check her out as her routine definitely helps me

Well done Carla on your new job, you're the perfect person for reception work, lovely personality, like you say think it will get some getting used to for you and will be tiring, but think you are doing the right thing for now, I started back full time work for the nhs office based 16 years ago and mourned my old life for a while, but soon got into the role and made new friends and enjoyed my wage!!, you will be fine give it all time Carla xxxx

[@MsDragunlady]

I wish you all the best in your new job! I'm sure you'll figure out all your scheduling along the way. I'll be here to watch any vids you post. Maybe you could film your drives to or from work sometimes, or just little vids like that....you know, to keep us going lol

Many congratulations to you! Well done you x

[@joanclarke6783]

Really pleased for u Carla, and glad its not goodbye, Love and good luck x

[@NorfolkReseller]

Good for you Carla. Get back that feeling that eBay works for you and not that you work for eBay. I find that I am now (after 8 years) working 7 days a week and not really being able to switch-off just to achieve what I did in 3-4 days in the past on eBay. This may well be my last year fulltime before going back to employment (for a rest).
