Jobs at ArgosJust seen an advert for jobs at Argos. Full or part time. This isn’t driving, it’s working in the stores. Wage...£9 per hour starting out. Where does that figure ring a bell? Oh yeah it’s the average going rate for driving a 44 ton truck about

Re: Jobs at ArgosTheir Fast Track drivers get £7.66/hr,and you need to be "Friendly,happy and motivated !"...hold me back
![]() ![]() Six mirrors,but only one pair of eyes !
Re: Jobs at ArgosHere we go again. "You get paid more stacking shelves... blah.. blah.. blah..."
But given a straight choice, between driving for £7.60, or working in a warehouse or stacking shelves for £9, which one would you choose? Employers know this, that's why drivers wages aren't going up. Whatever
Re: Jobs at Argos
I’d choose stacking shelves and working 8hrs a day ![]() But luckily for me my employer pays well over what Argos pay for stacking shelves ![]()
Re: Jobs at Argos
IF I was only after 40 hours a week I’d probably go for the job where I know my start and finish time every day. If I want max earnings than obviously I’d stick with the truck driving to max hours. Which is the case at the moment. Need the money more than I can sacrifice it for time at home to get a social life back. Once I can afford to though I’d certainly consider where I’d be better off!
Re: Jobs at Argoswhat about a paramedic , bloke who was sent out to me recently was a ex Lorry driver who had retrained and become a paramedic , never got involved in hours / money , but as a alternative to Lorry driving I'd of thought a lot more rewarding than shelf stacking
i think if you want a alternative to Lorry driving it's has to be something that has a interest to you , or you'll soon get bored and end up back at square 1 driving a Lorry again
Re: Jobs at Argos
If I want max earnings the last place I'd be in a truck as it takes most truck drivers 50+hrs to earn the national average for a 40hr week. Conor.
Man made global warming is a massive lie concocted and exploited by governments and business to extort money out of us. East Anglia University Climate Research Unit, the world leaders, have falsified data and have outright lied to everyone.
