Fair enough!

Glad they’re doing well making inroads into euro-work.

I hope this doesn’t end up like that thread earlier in the year about the dutch tanker company, where it ended with some drivers going in eyes wide shut

Can’t speak for anyone else but i have a fair idea of what i would be getting into.

I have seen their pay structure…nothing too radical there.

I know i am not going to rich working for them…but i would hope that i am going to earn more than £72 a week which i currently get off the dole…which considering my rent is £100 a week is a bit of a problem!

It’s a case of doing what i need to do until something better comes along…if it does.

Everyone that quotes their GiroCheque as their total earnings is so deluded.

You get HB and CTB. Child Benefit and CTC if you have kids.

Most people that claim social get a good deal.

[nvherman]

You can’t always get benefits other than the dole if you’re unemployed. If your partner works more than 20 hours a week it restricts what you can claim for

What i get in HB doesn’t cover my rent…so i still have to find the shortfall out of my dole money!

The perils of moving out of social housing into private accommodation based on having a good job at the time…

Trust me, claiming social and a good deal are poles apart.

Getting yer arse off the dole and into work is always good in my book. Whatever the job is ! Well done mate.

sounds good, apart from bumming people around Europe!

[dan_1986]

Ive just emailed s k about any jobs… they seemed to take on drivers based all over so are you away for months at a time or just park the truck up near home at weekends?

I suppose what ever floats your boat

[the_sarge]

Dan, it depends. You can be away for a long while, or kip in the yard when you are back (quite a few of the lads do that) or ask for a Monday load near where you live (a few do that as well). HTH

[pigpen]
