Anyone want some money?!

[devon TWiG]

It is like it in all trades these days I think , during recession no one trained anyone / got rid of staff etc now things are busy where do you get ( good ) staff .... any Romanian Arbs ? ... I do some lorry driving through an agency who are always wanting me to work , and recently on nearly all industrial estates I visit I see banners outside premises ... STAFF WANTED... the companies I work for ask if I want a full time job .. NO .. make the most of it, as who knows what might happen after the election !!

Dear Suzie ;-) The other week up here about 4 firms were looking for climbers. We're flat out.

^^^This. A company I sub to advertied for a pump engineer at the end of January, they were offering a good package, company van, 28 paid holidays, shut down from Xmas to new year(paid) phone, credit card ( if Ya need things go and get them is there attitude) aswel as the the normal bit, ppe, uniform. They only had four applications, none of which were suitable. It's a good thing for me mind, most of the time if I get a slack day or two I can ring them to fill my days. They also keep asking me to go full time but the truth is I don't want to work five days a week.

Nothing wrong with Coventry, that's my hometown!

 

There must be a shortage because every place I've ever worked at has contacted me within the past year asking for me to either do some sub-contracting or recommend them someone who can!

Same problem down here hedgeman, ive been looking for probably 10 months, finding devent guys with the right certs. Mind you, i'm not offering £50 an hour.

I'm a freelance climber and I am getting battered with phone calls at the min, plenty of climbers but not many who are actually any good I feel. I'm in Horncastle mate, I have a few days in April left if your struggling. Pm if your interested. But I'm guessing you have been bombarded with plenty by now haha

"Big up the COV massive"....I'm from rugby mind, employed, could still fill the majority of Saturday's with extra arb work..time of year and change in the weather is what's helped.

We are also looking for climbers and groundies. Had some interest but applicants were just not very promising. Will put another post out on job search.
