Terry T:
United Carriers in Oldbury. Was an engineer at the time but between contracts so did some agency work. Mostly as a drivers mate but got sent here once to sort parcels.I lasted 8 minutes. I started at 14:00 and walked out at 14:08. Was spoken to like dirt several times and bashed into with pallets trucks or people running around like the building was burning several times and I just thought nah, I’m not this desperate.
I said to the agency, I’m game for a lot of things but don’t send me there again. He just laughed and said yeah, we hear that a lot.
If you’re still after work in oldbury area give F.S.W a try, their drivers work mon-fri curtain side drop offs and collections till finish but regardless of hours they work they get 60 hrs pay for a week. Friendly staff as well that don’t treat you as a number. I worked for them with masstemps agency for a while and they did offer me a full time job but it was just too far from home to be a regular thing, had i lived closer i would have snapped it up.
