Ive turned down British Waterways and decided to go with Anchor.

If I work for BW its through a employment agency and they will pay me inclusive of my holidays (I get no holidays) and when I weigh it up I have had better paid jobs with holidays so its not worth it.

I rang BW to see if I can work direct for them but they cant do it at the moment due to the fact its a new development (lpools new canal) and they dont know what is going to happen.

there seems to be developing a seperate class of workers who
work for agencies a day or week here or there hardly any rights less wages than regular workers
No such thing as a job for life
Just like the 30s when dockers used to queue up hoping to be selected for work
This country is progressing backwards as regards its ordinary citizens


One of my sons worked for Transfoods thru an agency and the work was on a day to day basis and shiftwork
He has today received a phone call from the job centre about interviews to be arranged for Transfood

He has heard that the permanent workers wages are being lowered to nat min? and a load of workers have left creating vacancies

yer agencys are terrable and take a good cut of your cash.

Always work direct. even if they say that the company might take you on after so many months its all a blag.

I still have an interview on thurs for a top security company that is better paid so im still gonna give them a whirl.

Well done Wheels, TWO job offers, you need to open up a topic on interview techniques for us all to share.

Haha! Welcome to 'easy street' eh? Carefull of the slippery slope tho... before you know it you won't want to work, rather stay at home quaffing Dom Perignon and smoking fine cuban cigars whilst watching Jeremy Kyle. After a while you won't care that people who do have jobs will look down upon you, resent you for the taxes they pay to fund your lavish new lifestyle and blame you for how the whole country's going to hell in a handcart.

Seriously though, I hope you both find a new job soon.
