this is where i got the 50 people sacked idea just to clear up all there applications to be able to advertise for one more job.

I phoned yesterday was told they want 10 drivers and he is sending me an application form. I think something in my voice said desperate after all the e-mails i have sent off with no reply in my search for a good Euro job (if there is such a thing).
In search of a GOOD Euro job ? 
Spoke to Barry today,he said they are still after drivers and he would send out an application form,so make of that what you will
When i rang them,on Friday 11/03/2011 the person i spoke to told me that they had taken the vacancy out, as they had a 100 people who wanted the 1 job that was going ,so sorry nothing doing
i think they make it up as they go along to be honest
hi its big ned
i sent an email ages ago to birds never even got a reply so what does that tell you any way still looking for euro work dont hold out much hope as no one ever seems to reply to you.

What does that tell us?
Not a lot tbh.
Transport companies tend to be old fashioned in many ways. If you want an answer, speak to them, either face to face or on the phone.
Letters and e-mails tend to get filed (in file 13), to possibly got around to when they have a minute.
out of nearly 200 e-mails and phone calls and hand written letters i got 3 replies, 2 of them knock backs.
get out there, talk to the people and show face it stands for so much more
