Well we all know how hard it can be finding work when youve only just passed your test. Ageny work is a good start for experience if you can get it, but its not my cup of tea. Its the not knowing when & where or what your gonna be doing that annoys me.
Anyway a few weeks with local agencies working the odd day here & there & finally i have a permenant job offer. Ok its not quite what i was looking for but its a great start & a very good chance to get where i want to be, driving class 1. I start monday 07.30am & to start with i’ll be driving 7.5 tonners doing about 10 drops a day. I’ll be doing that for about 2 weeks & if i get on ok they’ve promised to move me upto class 2, then hopefully onto class 1. The money aint very good to start with although its still better then what i was getting in my last job. im happy to start at the bottom & work my way up as its all great experience.
They’re also gonna send me on a level 4 aviation security course, dont know anything about that but im sure i’ll benefit from having this in the future.
I have to say im still nervous but looking foward to it at the same time. I still have so much to learn. As ive always said, passing your test doesnt make you a good driver, the learning begins when you start working.
I’ll keep you all informed on my progress.
