Hi paul john hope you are well I started a new job in ebbw vale scotts commercial this is me tipping in Middlesbrough

Hi John. I read on the removals thread you had landed a new job. Sounded as if you needed a change from Clarke’s. Best wishes m8.
The contract I run recently changed from 6 days a week, Tuesday thru Sunday to 7 days. I had a part time guy who worked Sundays for me, but that meant I went from 5 to 6 days a week from November last year.
I finally, hired a female to run 4 on 4 off with me. It’s almost impossible to get anyone to work weekends regularly! This is my first weekend off for 5 months, so I am doing very well thanks.

Regards Paul.

Glad to hear it things slowly getting back to normal here,clarkes are not what they used to be your a number now I been there 10 years got treated like crap for 3 months time to go
