It’s not easy for any newbie in this climate to find an HGV job… that said, refuge drivers seem to have been in reasonable demand throughout this “virus crisis” - you might just be fortunately placed to ‘move up’ within the same company if you did happen to get your HGV licence. I’d have a word with the boss and see where you stand with that - “If I got my Class 2, would there be a job for me?”. Go from there.
