on my 3rd day :/ its in a supermarket and it's only training....but I have something planned for this coming thursday which has been planned for ages but i stupidly agreed to go to work. So do you think they'd let me have the night off on my first week there? I know it would look like i might not be commited, but I've known about the event on thursday before i even got the job. argh

you should have mentioned it before you started work, they could have made an allowance.
if you want the job, you should go to work. throwing a sickie in your first week does not look good

It depends on how much want the job. Maybe it you have a cool boss you could just talk to him about it. I would do in a way like you are asking for advice and not asking off. You might just luck out.

since your only training they could easily get rid of you and calling in on the first week is a definant no in the workplace. if this event is something you really want to go to then think wisely before you make any decisions.

I'm not sure why you would agree to work if this event has been planned for "ages." You should go to work as a discipline to youself for not taking care of this in advance.

You could ask them, but they might end up thinking your not very organised or aren't a committed & hardworker!
Don't skip work in the first week, I don't think they'd be impressed!

of course you cant skip work to go to whatever you have planned

Yes of course.
In fact they will probably be very generous and tell you to take the next 15 years off as well.

You could ask them. Chances are if you call in sick on your 3rd day, you won't have a 4th day. There's no such thing as "only" training!
