Change the first number for the next one in sequence and I’d consider it. Another one up and I’d apply.[/url]

Works out to about 6.20 an hour. Not very good but I’m sure there will be people on less. I find it amusing that you have to send an SAE for an application pack - they’re too tight to even pay for a stamp!

sure, its a short week so hourly aint bad, but I bet there’s a lot of crap that goes with the job, occasionally quite literally (horse boxes I bet!).
And lets face it, in Hull, you can earn 12k part time seasonally as a gritter driver on class 2.
Agencies are typically £7 an hour minimum round here as well

couldnt have put it better myself
so whats the odds they WILL find some dummy to fill the position?? 
I live in the area, so I will send off for the pack, NOT.
I know I’m sat here eating monkey nuts, doesn’t mean I am a monkey and will work for peanuts.
The money isn’t good enough and I have an issue with cops so I don’t think it’s for me I do have a thing for horse boxes though. 
the money is crap for sure, but it sounds an interesting number, better than trunking for instance.
The money is crap but the job sounds alright to me. Bit of this bit of that something different every day sounds good to me. Don’t know about chauffering top cops around though, not into yes sir no sir might have a problem with that. Think I just talked myself out of it.
This is obviously a civilian job - easily identifiable by the wage structure.
If this job were for a police officer (who also happens to hold an HGV licence) then the salary would be double that for the same hours.
It would be nice to find out how many people do apply though!
for me, the chauffering doesn’t sound bad.
I applied for a job as driver at HQ Logistics Command at RAF Brampton when aged 20, and passed all the skills assessments with flying colours, only to be told I was too young for their insurance and I’d been interviewed to make the numbers look better to the CO, but was by far the strongest candidate - and before my big bike crash aged 18 I’d passed the skills assessments, physicals etc to enter the RAF as an MTD, including a part of the assessment that judges smoothness and vehicle sympathy (see if you’d be worth nicking as the CO or other rupert’s driver once through basic training).
So, that type of job has always interested me, if only to learn and develop escape and evasion driving skills and CP driving skills (although the one I linked to would never come close to needing those skills).
I could live with that.
Its the handyman bit. Can’t be doing with that, especially on a miniscule wage
