First of all great news :smiley:

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 :confused:

have you been to liverpool before sam?

Sam how did it go ā– ā– ?

Judging by Sam’s absence, I’d say it went well, he got the job and he’s now scraping
bits of Liverpudlian shoppers off his mudguards…

…or it didn’t 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 :frowning:

Sorry I haven’t 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 ā€œliked 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 :cry:

Anyway I called the number back as it was from the same area code where I was - it was Tuffnell’s 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! :laughing:

So I guess it’s a waiting game at the moment but I’m 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 :stuck_out_tongue:) up at Bellshill for casual but seems i wasn’t successful somehow despite saying i’d be happy to work days nights weekends tramping and trunking.

Getting a bit desperate now as I say my wage isn’t 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 you’ve already managed to find driving work as a newly qualified eighteen year old and remember that there’s many people with years of experience that would kill for what you’ve 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 it’s not that I’m unthankful for what I did get, I mean I’ve even PMd people on here who I think could benefit from the post I’m leaving, so basically in other words I’ve given them the opportunity to phone the agency and I’ve told the agency themselves about it. So although I’m looking for something else, I’d like to think I’m helping out too.

Hi Sam pringles messed me about to. I was told by the owner that I’d get a start and never heard from them again

I thought this company ā€˜wasn’t the best’?

Wouldn’t 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, you’re not in the trailer so as long as it’s road worthy…

They run a fleet of Scania’s and all looked reasonably clean and tidy when I was there.
