I've been offered a job

[limeyphil]

On face value it looks like a fairly decent job.
£600 per week after tax. All legal. Working from Holland to Germany and Scandinavia.
You don’t drive in the UK, It’s all continental.
It’s not for van den bosch before we start a new 50000000 page long thread, it’s for Gist.
I’m not sure what to do. here’s my dilema.
I love driving, it’s what i’m good at.
I don’t like driving in the UK. It’s full of tossers, terrorists, and traitors.
But i am quite used to being at home nowadays with a tidy wife that does her job.
and i’ve never worked for a large company, i prefer phil rather than driver 2619.

I’m tempted, but i can’t make my mind up.

So that’s how to win friends and influence people, you having on ‘off’ day by any chance Phil ?

I don’t know what you are stuttering for ? Sounds right up your street. If you don’t want it then shove it this way

[kerbdog]

You’ll still need to do your DCPC though

I’m not doing it. It’s an optional extra.

Not if he’s over 50 and driving for a Dutch company he doesn’t.

If I commented to my wife that I thought she was tidy and did her job, I’d get a fat lip.

[truckyboy]

Phil, i see your dilema, these good jobs only come up when you either dont want them to, or when theyre least expected. I suppose that getting home to your lovely wife and family is the dilema, working away from them, i suppose it depends on when you can get home ? if thats the issue, or if the family dont like it, i dont know what i would do, probably if it put food on the table, gave a good standard of living, paid the bills etc, go for it. so long as you stay in touch with TN

Hi all im a new boy here with this my first post
how do you go about finding jobs like that…what web pages do you look at.

Ship her off to Holland with you, presume you’ll be back at weekends £600 per week after tax is a good touch.

[mickyblue]

I thought you was running a firm with drivers etc?

the dcpc is a eu-wide stupidity, a friend got fined €1000 for not having one in spain for example.

Probably be back every 6 weeks or so. She’ll stay here and run the business. I just hope she dosn’t spend it all like last time.
I think i’ll give it a bash for 6 months.

Sounds as good as when you were on Nolan’s at 1200 quid a week

really? i wish.

[short_walk]

Would that be what was Soonious Phil? Up and down to Helsingborg? Give it a go and if need be fly Mrs out to Schipol once in a while and spend the week on the way together. And yes you will need that cpc nonsense card I’m afraid. Best of luck.
