who is the main agency in there?
Adina’s and Able.
Adina pays the full weekend shift premium however, Able keep part of it themselves.
Sports Direct, ■■■■■■ Full of foreigners, 2 dead fit birds who do the paperwork, one has a cleavage to die for, and she knows it. Don’t be late. They have fines for everything, £500 for being a few minutes passed their 30 minute ‘allowance’.
More chiefs than indians…ok if your polish…double manned…crap rate.
Surely your running out agencies now arnt you? What are you going to do when you fail the assessment drive for this one?

He’ll post another story about it 
Not interested in the post, but saw who the op was so curiosity got the better of me 
and i had to have a look just for a giggle 
OMG he is moving closer to me lmao hope he ends up at my place I want to see him take our drugs and alcohol test
Best connection do the warehouse staff, b&d will be safer there, will probably need a banksman tho to reverse them forklifts
Was £8.50 per hour whilst I was there, no assessment drive required either.
If he went out with an experienced chap they could help him to learn the reversing.

I did a shift in there on Friday for an agency (who dose not have a contract to there name) who I shall not mention
I looked at the agency singing in book and the biggest name there was Able
Asked some other drivers and they said Able where from Derby
I have googled and yell.com them but can find a name or number
Do you have a number for Able please?

I went out with a guy that had his class 1 since he was 21 years old
we went out on wag and drag
needs a bigger turning circle then an artic I noticed this when going round corners and stuff
Got to bay he said do you want me to back it in; no I said I will do it as I need the practice just stand behind the truck and watch I dont hit anything
got it in on second shunt

Thanks
Is there a Derby branch as well?
The agecncy I did a shift for are based in sheffield but a slip of the tong from the wrong recutment consoltent said she was getting the work from there Derby branch
As all our branches are franchises they will be using the sheffield branch as a last resort and will put there own Derby drivers in first
So if there is an Able Derby branch dont want to go and register with the sheffield branch
Ever heard of Google?

They are a one branch agency. Not the best rate payers, but do pay acurately everyweek, and do PAYE. Been with them for a couple of years now and any problems have been sorted out straight away. Adina’s are the same type of set up as Able i.e 1 branch, think most of their drivers are on umbrella schemes.
Think I know which agency your with, ask them about some Gist work.

Is Gist a proper haulage company
Do you need to have had your licence for 2 years to drive for them?
