greetings all,
first off, my sincere apologies to people I was talking to here a few months ago before i dropped off the grid, I’m not ignoring y’all, its been crazy here.
good news, I’m a father, little Elizabeth is now 2 and a bit months old and breaks daddys heart every time she smiles at him.
Also, I passed my Cat C June/JUly as you know, picked up work with kuehne Nagel (via agency) about a week after my CPC MOD4 was done, so all good, however not much driving was done with them as they mainly run urban artics, the rigids they run are tiny, straight 6 gearboxes which is weird.
Update, hours went down so I went upstirs in the yard at witham and talked to Welch’s, (score) even with my lack of experience I was taken on, runnning powder tankers, and thats what ive been doing the last few months. long hours, not great pay buut at this stage in the game you take what you can right? and i’ve gotta say damm but I loved it!
The bad news, my trucks being taken off the road and I’ve just been made redundant, I’m sticking my head into Simarco’s office one evening this week, (on the same industrial estate) and asking and I think there’s a Bartrums depot close buy to go talk to also. Does anyone know anything else in essex, Living in braintree now (thank god we got out of the inlaws) but obviously a commute is possible.
Additionally, my dads making noises about fronting me the money for my class 1 test again, as it may make me more employable,what are peoples opinions on that, C2, i can call a good 4 moths experience (maybe fudge it a little higher but , thats not honest) with powder tanker work so obviously used to maneouvring in tight spaces with a rigid, (8 wheel), would having a class 1 but no experience detract?
Thanks
Ste
