Sorted already! It's about 36k too, so f*ck skip work.

I'm going to graft right up until I leave this place banking as much Stirling as possible in the process!

I might just have to buy some new gear too!

36k sounds pretty damn good to me. I don't even know what i'm on. Surposedly i'm on 13k a year, but i do so much over time that i sometimes earn a months wages in two weeks. Going to be hard to not live with that kind of money when i leave soon  :lol:

Do you drive Steve? If so then have a think about going for the class 3 (7.5 tonne) and building on that. You'll never be out of work and you don't have an assitant manager to pretend to like either! There's so much HGV work going begging in this country. It's easy as well, if you can mosh it up then you could do that!  :lol:

Thanks mate!  :D  8) I was getting worried working there too. It's F*cked in that firm. Anyway this new work is home countys, so I won't have to play chicken on the A406 every morning with illegal drivers with no chance of being tracked down and convicted for these outrageous driving stunts. So what's the score on your bro's set-up, does he need someone and pay well?  :wink:

Thanks lads!  :D

I have to do 6 days for that but who cares! My mate who's been there a few years gets his work done in around 6-7 hours, then you get the waggon back and go home. No scum bags to endure and gaurd your property against, with scaffold poles! I'm planning to leave the UK before May. So this job sounds ideal!

Truckin got my chips cashed in. keep truckin, like the do-dah man
Together, more or less in line, just keep truckin on.

Nice one chap, i've been thinking about getting into driving work. Does it harm your chances much if you've got quite a few points?

I'm going to Las Vegas to work on those tacky stretch limos! The sky's the limit on earnings out there. I'll give it as long as i can stand or I may just like it! Things there are easy if you work and i know i can do that job. They earn around $3000 a weekend once you suss the game out. So a few years there and I may go down under after If i can get in there too. I have friends from England in LV and Australia. There are also loads of photography opportunitys in LV too, seeing as i earn from that on a part time basis here I shouldn't have many problems making that work for me there too. Then I can free up time after a period of establishing myself and get a band there.

Fingers crossed!  :lol:
