Think they have something to do with bread.
When I were a lad…
I`ve only ever done deliveries to the Gain lane site, the lads seem ok

whats the dough like .do you have to rise early for shifts …do you have to count to a bakers dozen
We all need to earn a crust.
AFAIK it’s up the top of a cobbled street and access is by pushbike only.
Go for it . Class 2 multi drop lots of manual work but easy.
Class 1 even easier work. Pay about 27k.
paid yearly DCPC training day.
Full PPE, full uniform, pension,
you’ll be trained to do it the Hovis way but then that’s the norm for any big company.

Easy 
I beg to differ 
worst job I’ve ever had 
( except for MKG Foods and Palletline that is 
)
Based in Bradford. Guess where the colouring for their bread comes from.

That’s easy … Rank Hovis, I used to deliver it
Have a mate who does agency for hovis ( not Bradford ) and his only gripe is short shifts ( 7/8 hrs ) ,don’t speak that regular so not sure if that’s always the case or just the week we speak.
But can’t be that bad as he’s always there .
Backhauled for hovis and they were always fine with me

So did I,my first “proper” job 
.Had I have been more experienced,I could have probably made a fist of it,but the access to some of those Somerfield/Kwik stores reduced me to a gibbering wreck 
Especially that one in Swansea…you know the one…it’s got a car parked opposite the access drive (with a bloody great dent in it 
)

I think I may have had this conversation with you on here before now I think of it. Morriston Swansea? You had to fold your mirrors in to reverse up that lane it was that tight. Used to have to guess your way back or listen for the guys on the back door shouting on you to stop.[emoji23] [emoji23]
