Any 5 from 7 working days, 3 weekends off in 8, its a good and easy job but you earn your money by the amount of weekends you put in.
I’d reccomend if you dont mind the weekends

I agree with the rota change quip ‘College’ :laughing: Its tough to get up on your banked hours thats a fact,but not impossible I may even earn a bit of overtime this month if I can avoid a week of 6,7,8 or 9 hour shift (You watch me :smiling_imp: ) I find the best way for o/t is by doing a 6th shift, I may as well as my days off are midweek and I’d only be spending the day alone as everyone is at work or school :frowning:

Agreed :laughing:

Bones:
Agreed :laughing:

You cant sniff at a 12 hour shift @ £16.50 on a wednesday eh! :sunglasses:

The agency that was regularly supplying drivers to sainsburys near the stockyard before it moved up to Sherburn, recently offered me £12 + p/hr days (O/T after 8hrs) to travel up to sherburn, seems they still have their foot in the sainsburys door

Glad to hear your assessment went well I went for an interview/driving assessment with Wincantons for Sainsbury’s at Swan Valley Northampton on fri 26th Sept had my theory test and interview went well driving out for a good hour mixture of a roads,country roads and motorway it was a Merc auto nice came back and reversed on the bay passed ok was told the next step is a medical and her eis is the problem am still waiting was sent a double questionaire ,one about my general health and the other about my sleep pattern apparantly at this site a medical is part of there process before they offer you the job so lets hope I hear back soon…regarding there shift pattern I was told it’s 5 out of 7 and for every 7 weeks worked you’ll have to do 5 weekends mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm money is good and the job looks easy as northampton is meant to be the greenest distribution centre in the UK and they only deliver in a 2hr 30min radius from the site looks good.

they only deliver in a 2hr 30min radius from the site looks good.

Does that mean you`ll be doing 2 trips per day.

Transline are the only agency operating in the sherburn RDC so I believe, my mate works for them and they pay £10-75 flat rate all the way through

I discovered on saturday that transline are subbing out their work to other agencies as they are struggling with their own drivers to meet demand,.
I dare say in a few week they’ll not have any futher problems of that note :laughing:
