The Italian Jobs - Very long diary Part 1

yes i did but after 2 hrs thinking about it i declined as i dont like useing my own credit card to run with even though the guy dus put the money in first as i have had my card cloned twice doing this helping others out i feel if a company sets up they shud have cards to run with them selvs not expect to use drivers own credit cards .other than that they not very well organized .told to go for interview at 3.00 pm the guy dont turn up at his house till gone 6.00 pm then he interviews 2 drivers in the same room not very profesional in my view .the guys are great very freindly nice people .just not very well organised .hope they find what they after think they got good work but the vans aint up to it they are town run abouts not for that job realy

Vans ARE pants, there is no easy way to say it. Did the job right til’ the end :laughing: ! They are city vans without a doubt. The Governor is aware, and he is on the case to rectify that. The cash WAS deposited in my account, I just used my noggin and took it straight out as Euro. So it was in there for about an hr. No problem as far as I can see. Yes it’s long hours. You can sleep in motels if you so desire. The money is very adequate if you don’t mind an odd rough night. I personally rigged up a nice makeshift bed complete with mattress. Slept like a baby and am now home for 2 days. I think it’s a piece of ■■■■.
Once the new gear arrives and it all settles into a routine. it’ll just get better and better. :wink:

Keep us posted big v sounds like a good job I’ve worked for the run scrap and a bit un organized sort before and was the best job best money I ever had, if the particular firm I’m thinking about started up again I’d be knocking there door down.

Hi Dave, I had planned on seeing my lad. He has been in hospital for the last 2 weeks, he’s been having seizures and he has problems controlling his muscles. Due to the van acting up yesterday, I couldn’t make the hospital. I will get a 2nd chance next week. Thanks for asking buddy.

The way I look at it its £1600 for a short holiday every month. Where’s the problem in that? :laughing:

Yes sounds good sir, best wishes to your lad I’m out on sick at the min after a few months in hospital so I can sympathize. Hope he feels better soon.
