NEW AND WANNABE DRIVERS (INTERACTIVE)

Hi i’m currently in the army looking to get into driving fuel when I get out. I’m a class 1 driver with ADR class 3. I’m finding it really hard to find any jobs in the North East, does anyone have any tips or advice? Thanks.

Where about in the North East are you :question:

There are some jobs out there but not fuel sorry

I left the army recently through voluntary redundancy, I drive for a living now. My first job was on the fuel tankers though a agency then I was took on by the company only for a winter contract tho. You will be very very lucky to get onto tanker work (I was)

Because I told him the truth I am a knobead :unamused: really

So what advice would you give him when there are no real fuel Cat CE driving jobs in Newcastle the nearest place would be Billingham / Middlesborough which is approx 100 mile round trip

Struggling to see where your advice is any better than Animals to be honest but at least we all now know what you do and how lucky you are.
