First of all great news
Some of the home bargain locations are a nightmare like theres one in the city centre where you literally drive through streets that only police are aloud down as people use these shopping streets should i call them haha to get from place to place
have you been to liverpool before sam?
Sam how did it go ā ā ?
jx

Sam how did it go ā ā ?
Judging by Samās absence, Iād say it went well, he got the job and heās now scraping
bits of Liverpudlian shoppers off his mudguardsā¦
ā¦or it didnāt go too well, there was no job offer and Sam is hoping this thread sinks to the bottom never to be seen again.
Bump.
Did anything come of it then??
Phil
looked on his fb profile and he bought a new satnav on 28th but no other updates referring to the job. plenty of other stuff on there though. doesnt look good
Sorry I havenāt been keeping you guys up to date.
Well I went for the interview as planned, had a good talk with the owner of the company, filled out an application form. He has 3 young ladies driving for him as well as another 18 year old, 19 year old and 21 year old.
What he did say was that IF I would be offered anything it would be a minimum of two weeks away as from that day on he would be on holiday for the next fortnight and āliked to be on hand when new guys startā. During the interview my phone went off (on silent obviously) so as I returned from the office there was another chap sitting, i suspect for an interview no doubt which is bad news for me as I guess he will be reaming full of experience
Anyway I called the number back as it was from the same area code where I was - it was Tuffnellās Parcel Express and they wanted me to go over and see them for an interview on Class 1! So after dragging me over there they tell me because I have no experience on wag and drag it was more than his job was worth, prick!
So I guess itās a waiting game at the moment but Iām not holding out much hope. Sick fed up of my post with this agency at the moment as today I found out that the bin loaders are taking home more per week than I am despite them being roughly Ā£2 ph down on me!!!
I had applied for the green team (yes i did go there ) up at Bellshill for casual but seems i wasnāt successful somehow despite saying iād be happy to work days nights weekends tramping and trunking.
Getting a bit desperate now as I say my wage isnāt great and I have things to pay and myself to keep.
Sorry to hear that Sam, keep plugging away and it will happen. Also be thankful that youāve already managed to find driving work as a newly qualified eighteen year old and remember that thereās many people with years of experience that would kill for what youāve got right now.

Oh make no mistake about it, I know I was lucky to get what I did and have always and still say it. But itās not that Iām unthankful for what I did get, I mean Iāve even PMd people on here who I think could benefit from the post Iām leaving, so basically in other words Iāve given them the opportunity to phone the agency and Iāve told the agency themselves about it. So although Iām looking for something else, Iād like to think Iām helping out too.
Hi Sam pringles messed me about to. I was told by the owner that Iād get a start and never heard from them again
I thought this company āwasnāt the bestā?
Wouldnāt like to run up and down to Liverpool all the time in a clapped out truck and trailer.
Most boring run available!

Not sure about a clapped out Truck and well, youāre not in the trailer so as long as itās road worthyā¦
They run a fleet of Scaniaās and all looked reasonably clean and tidy when I was there.
