I used to park in donny cattle market a fair bit when I was living and working for a Worcestershire firm. We used to frequent The George. Needless to say I ended up meeting somebody and have lived here for about 17 years! The cattle market is now Doncaster college.

I left 18 month ago
Would that be about the time they were having to pay for their fuel with cash as the fuel cards had been cancelled?

Donny aint all that bad you know?!?!?!?! To be fair though, if I didn’t have 2 teenage kids here I’d probably be out of here for somewhere more scenic as I split up with their mother last year. Anyway, back on subject, I know somebody that worked for BJS as a planner but was fired because he was bloody useless

Theyre brilliant…12 hrs a day…£800 a week take home, 3 months holiday pay at full rate, top spec motors with microwave, fridge and tv/dvd, all leather, fully automatic, 12 spot lights and frilly curtains, all meals paid for via a daily allowance, no weekend work, and a drivers mate if requested.Why not phone them up and ask them yourself.
You forgot the flight of pigs they have doing aerial displays!
BJS are a treat as a transport company.
THey took our contract over in Sept 2016 and ran it into the ground with mismanagement. THey put 17 drivers and a transport manager out of work, and it now appears they cocked up the TUPE transfer and we are still hoping for our redundancy payments
WE were pleased to find they have managed a bent buy out, with another dodgy name!
Don’t go near the set of crooks. You will be very very sorry.
Plenty of decent companies need drivers.
Cactus Jaxx.
Let me guess that contract was brash timber I heard they ■■■■■■ that up
Out of the half-a-dozen or so BJS drivers I’ve met, not a single one’s had a good thing to say. They seem to have a very bad reputation in the Doncaster area for being terrible to work for, and extremely disorganised. Last time I was in the area, they’d resorted to using banners to advertise for drivers, which is normally a sign of desperation, and that they can’t keep the drivers they get.
They strike me as a firm who’d have flash BMW-driving teenagers with quiffs in their traffic office, probably incompetent family members of the owner milking-it. That’s just a prediction, using my knowledge of similar firms.
Either way, probably best to avoid.
