Rang an haulier who had placed a advert on gov .com website. When they answered phone and said who they were ,I THOUGHT KNOW WAY …being a polite person I let the conversation continue… He asked me what moters I had driven…l said WHITE ones ( coz I know that is what they run ) Guess what he said can I come and see him tmw…I had to put the phone down.
Wow you know how to make a good impression. Why bother phoning if your not really interested?
Ask em if they supply drivers with satnavs.
Eh?
he won’t need a sat nav if he ‘knows’ the way
They should have put “No time-wasters” on the ad.

Looks like they dodged a bullet. You’re so stupid you don’t even realise what a knob you’ve just made yourself look posting that.
So are you going to see them or is it signing on day tomorrow?
Don’t knock it Conor old chap, the more plonkers like this about the better it makes the rest of us look…
At this rate we’ll be indispensable, they’ll be picking us up from the home for the bewildered, lifting us up into the wagon then ferrying us back to the home after work…
so the op called an advert that didn’t state the company - they said who they were - he told them he had driven white lorries and they asked him to come for an interview but he is in the wrong for not attending?
jesus some of you on here need your heads looking at, why would you attend? they obviously take anyone and everyone if saying you drive a white lorry gets you an interview.

That’s what i thought, he didn’t like the firm but rather than just put the phone down he thought he would talk himself out of a job on purpose but the firm were so desperate they still wanted him !!
Whilst the haulier might not be any of our choices (and lucky old us having the luxury of that choice), i don’t know anyone who holds a lorry licence childish enough to send the conversation the way it went, most of us would have simply said thanks but no thanks.
childish or maybe proving how desperate they are?
I went for an interview years ago - quick chat and out with the head fitter - unit only to a roundabout half a mile away and back to be offered the job.
I said no thanks and wish I had pushed the boundaries a bit more. it would have saved me a wasted trip.
One of these?
What I’d give him to drive…

You jest but I would be highly unsurprised.
