“Excellent Working Conditions
You’ll be working with great kit, which takes much of the stress out of your job.”
Loading/unloading & driving a zb’tty Reno with a rear window is not my idea of ‘excellent working conditions with great kit’…!

The gals in the aldi shops are on £10 per hour, that was five or ten years ago as they neede to memorise all the prices for some reason.
WRONG products are bar coded except for any loose veg,have been for a good few years now,
Its surprising how much people think they know about jobs in Companies,when all they can go by is out off date info or hear say,or assume what was on TV was gospel and went on in all departments.

If it helps anyone the new Aldi distribution depot in the North West is currently nearing completion next to Jct 4 M61, a place called Over Hulton.
I think its a great location, away from the chaos of the M60 and Trafford Park.

Why can’t driving a thing the weight of an aircraft and capable of killing as many people as an aircraft when handled wrong be paid a bit more “Pilot Style” eh?
But a HGV licence costs £3k, not £100k.
Things aren’t so rosy in the pilot scene either.
There’s talk of zero hours contracts there too, except they’re trying to pay back that 100k on that.
Also pilots only get paid for time in the air. i.e Arrive at work 1 hr before take off, get settled on the flight deck, flight departure is delayed 2 hours. 20 mins to taxi to runway. They are not paid for any of that time.

If I’m salaried at £150k, I wouldn’t give a hoot if they only paid me £1m an hour pro rata whilst I’m operating the undercarriage - and for nothing else!

I wouldn’t mind being a pilot on zero hours contract. I have seen some top movies with pilots and female cabin crew members
Yeh, but strangely I’ve never heard from an ex-stewardess (bearing in mind I nearly married one once!) that would say “Yeh - We had some hot times on those layovers…”
Travellers tales at best - Nobbie’s Knobbery tales worth Knob-All at worst.
Positions are offered on a 12 week temporary to permanent basis and you will transfer to permanent payroll with Aldi on week 13.
Contracts are full time, working 4 on 2 off, which includes working on weekends.
Contracts are a minimum of 40 hours per week on a shift rota basis.
Well there’s another job ruined. 4 on 2 off is an appalling shift for the social life. Working 2 weekends out of 3. Why not just leave it 4 on 4 off and have done with it.
Could someone enlighten me as to how 4 on 2 off works for the company on an operational basis. I mean, if a driver is doing 4 on who is doing his 2 off. Surely they ain’t got folk doing 2 on 4 off. Why not just 4 on 4 off days and nights ?

Supermarket deliveries aren’t go go 24/7, its usually quiet during the week but busier on weekends. I think Aldi back haul some of their stuff too. Imo 4/4 is a zb shift pappern[emoji16]
