  1. It is Ben, Look forward to hearing from you. Regards. Baz
  2. Hi all, Thanks so much for the replies and contributions.! Yes, I've got a fair few tickets that would come in handy; Ex Forces - Vehicle Mech, C+E 1, First Aid, IOSH, SWAH 1.. ..some not so relevant too.? Injury wise, nothing that a handful of ibuprofen doesn't sort out. I'll definitely take the advice and apply it accordingly. I think the groundie tickets are a great idea to open the door and I'm fully expecting to fund my own courses. ?
  3. Thanks Lux, thanks for your reply. I'm in Derby. I appreciate it's not the best paid job; in fact it doesn't reflect the skill and risks associated with it.. However, I feel that I've some transferable skills so it would suit me to the ground. I'll crack on and do the courses I think, age is only a number eh?! (Wonder if I'll be saying that in 6 months time?!?) Cheers.
  4. Hi all, I'm facing a dilemma, which is nagging me.. so I'm asking for some hard truths to set me straight. I'm in full time employment, working shifts. I want to give the Mrs the option to reduce her hours at work, or change jobs. I'd be seeking part time employment, which would allow me to commit to a few days a week, preferably working for an established outfit. As a result, I've enrolled on a CS30 & 31 course to give me some qualifications to get me started; with a vision to doing CS 38 39 etc later in the year. Only thing is, I'm 40.. and I'm wondering if it's too late in the day to start pursuing this as a part time employment option. I am a 'fit' bloke and spent a day with a firm recently, which I really took to and really encouraged me. Recap: 1) Am I too old? 2) Do firms set on part timers? (In their 40s! Ha!) Cheers. Baz
