I know right, something goes right then straight away something else goes wrong, nothing ever seems to last long 

Your in the wrong game we cant get electricians and the ones we do get we can't keep and that goes for the shit ones as well. And its not just our company anyone involved in our industry is in the same boat. Same with welsh water their crying out for people in certain areas down here and nobody is applying for the jobs.

I've not been told I'll be calling metcalfs tomorrow morning to find out all the details it was 5.20pm that I was asked if I could start Monday, it's tramping all week so not exactly ideal but if the money is right then I'll run with it.

I'll be expecting 35-40k a year after tax to make it worthwhile

That would mean £50k to £60k, you would need shit ton of overtime and night work for that, I think you are dreaming as usual.

Rode over to my parents’ place today, a longer time than usual away. Stayed mostly on the motorway, it was chilly but ok after I put the warmer gloves on. My brother is leaving tomorrow so wanted to spend sometime with him today, also was not looking forward to a day freezing in the hills.

brief stop for the chorizo bread lunch@Sofiabaked yesterday.

Tomorrow or after it’ll start raining, and I’ll be dealing with work shit for a few days, on top of probable family stuff. This might be my botm submission this month, taken on the @Six30 school of photography

Only jobs here are carers and motor mechanics, sorry technicians. I don't want to be either.

That's quite achievable in this line of work, don't necessarily need a shit ton of night work or overtime just the right rates

I was working for a sparky mate from an old rugby club before I got my hgv licence, I was thinking about doing my sparky course but he advised me against it saying there's not money in it like there used to be

we keep loosing people because they chase money they don't seem interested in a stable job just jump to whoever pays the most. we pay the nation rate which is fair and we don't work our staff to death for their wage but people are not happy with that for some reason.

Get to pick up the money pit tomorrow. This is going to be expensive 😩 but 😃hopefully chased away the last of the gremlins. He's done the forks AGAIN. He's found out why it was twisted at the front as if it had a bent fork...it doesnt...He's cleaned and balanced the carbs and put new carb mounts on. Serviced it. So we shall see. It sounds amazing. Wish i could post a video on here 😪
