Thanks for the tip.
Are you on for them?
No, I tried when Morrisons RDC closed but too many drivers at the time! I have packed driving in to work at the rail hub by tescos ATM. Better hours!
If I had to go back driving I would try and get in there, I did a few days agency with them and really enjoyed it. Jobs are via agency unfortunately!! Best bet is ADR in commercial road.
Thanks Mark.
I will give that a miss for the moment.
Currently full time where I am and although I dislike it, it would be mad to give a full time job up to be thrown to the mercy of an agency.
I too had an interview when they opened their new RDC but every man and his dog went for it.

B&Q Swindon want full time drivers
yep dhl/b&q n the package they are offering aint too bad either i hear
Sorry I meant the full time jobs are being handled by agency but you will work and be paid by DHL if successful. The agency are only doing recruitment.
This is how I ended up at Iceland for a short time. Didn’t really enjoy it there and went to COOP Andover instead. Really wish Morrisons were still here as I loved that job!
PM’d you Mark.

@Truckman 20Thanks for your response.
I don’t mind putting some hours in but if it’s tramping it just wouldn’t suit me at all.
I’d do a couple of nights away but her indoors needs to be kept happy as well.
Happy wife happy life
Thanks again.
no probs chap,happy to help
NEILG 14,as i said,if you cannot answer by helping a fellow driver then do not bother at all,it does not matter if they ask or not no driver should work a saturday if they have worked hard all week,if you spend all week in a cab i would have thought any tramper would be glad to hand their keys in on a friday and not see it again until sunday night or monday morning,there are a lot of decent drivers on here who do actually help fellow drivers if they need it,seems you are not one of them,i could be wrong but from what i have seen on your post maybe i am right
They talk to you like ■■■■ and treat you like ■■■■ they don’t like the English people I know that

They do that where Steve66 works at the moment.
If you are looking for class 1 work in the Swindon area,might be worth giving Sw Group logistics a call.
If you are passing, be polite,knock on the door and ask.

…they run you ragged,i know this because i had a lodger who worked for them,he was regularly doing 15 hour shifts about 3 times a week and 10 or 12 hour shifts the other 2 days and he was asked if on a friday night if he could tip on a saturday,so that was his weekend gone [or at least a good few hours of it ]and of course its tramping as he was away all week,from what he told me they never let up,once he tipped they sent him elsewhere once he tipped that again sent somewhere else for another load and he was asked to do one saturday every month…
OMG
Steve66, were you asking on your behalf or for your colleague who put petrol in his tank?
