Leaving Forces need help Central Scotland

I was at a employment fair as part of me leaving the Army and Pertemps were all for taking drivers. Phoned them up today and said I’ll get the Falkirk/Livingston branch to phone you (no call) then phoned them myself and the guy on the phone said they would phone in 20 min (no call). Bit of a ■■■■ take really, so does anyone know any agency’s in Falkirk/central belt taking on drivers or even company’s ? Not bothered how crap the jobs are just looking for somewhere I can feel secure and keep my head down and work as much as possible.

Best bet is to walk in the door of haulage companies with a cv looking tidy in my opinion. Agencies are the scum of the earth who will ■■■■ you about. And how about Stobbarts, Maxi haulage or that lot with red truck that run loads of coal from the port on the west coast at Largs.

So best avoiding agency’s altogether then ? I’ve applied to stobart a couple of weeks ago but heard nothing back, I’ll give Maxi a try though.

Will do

Was just going to mention Mitchells, most of the guy’s that come into our place seem happy enough.
You’ve also got D Adams there usually taking on, but to be honest they get mixed reviews.
A wee bit further a field you’ve got Malcolms at Newhouse.

Same thing, different name, so if your cert’s not expired you should be good to go.
