OK lads I don't own a shell so hiring one may be an option -I may have to goto my local scrote-centre oh sorry I ment job centre!
And I threw out the gimp suit a few years ago...
 
The Scallies nicked his MK ll escort 
A lad I know worked at a haulage company, one of their drivers had a flatbed full of bricks and parked up in a car park between Everton and Anfield. The local kids used to run a protection racket there "Giz a fiver and we'll make sure nuttin appens to yer car/van/truck"
This driver tells them to do one and goes off for some food. When he got back they'd taked every single brick off his trailer and built a wall round his truck, obviously without mortar but they'd left the pallets on the truck.
So for the sake of a few quid the company had to pay out to get several thousand bricks re palletised and put back on the truck
 
I wonder if 'Tel' heard of 'Sam's Spares' back in the 90's! ?? Waterloo, near Bootle! Our kid had a job stripping cars, bless him, he used to say " but some of the cars were new"!
 
If you don't have a suit, go as smartly dressed as you can. Take cv and certs/quals. Good luck! :)
 
don't park in the directors' slot,don't light up. don't spit on the floor.
 
I personally got with shirt,tie suit pants with black shoes(cleaned and polished) and i tend to take a folder with my CV, GCSE certificates and any other document related such as my conditional offer to college, City Training and my college course details. Show up a little bit early too, Good luck mate.
 
Hi guys thanks for advice. Just an update
I went in a shirt (not a Hawaiian one) with a plain black tie, black trousers and polished boots. Did a bit of research on company beforehand. Interview went well even tho I was nervous.
That was yesterday, today at 14:00hrs I get a phone call, I had impressed them greatly and was offered the job!
Cards in, van + fuel card + bonus scheme etc. I'm over the moon that I've landed a cards in job. The job seems easy enough its reactive maintenance electrician for a large outdoor advertising company (JCDecuax's only big competator) .
Thanks for the help and advice
