cheap trainee offered

[rich83]

hi,

i'll keep this as brief as possible,and if any one is interested,and wants more info then please just ask.

- 29 years old from Norwich area
- full clean license.
- level 2 c & g. (gained through college)
- funds for small used van, and around 1k for some tools.
- gcse grade c in maths.

i am currently unemployed and through the job centre i can work 16 hrs at nmw/100. before losing benefits, this can last up to a year, so my idea is,as far as job centre are aware ill be on 16 hours but ill actually work the rest of week for free. i wont be benefiting financially, but i hope this may get me an employer who will teach me valuable skills,and ideally a job at the end,but if not no hard feelings.i would be eternally grateful for experience gained. so in summary you'll get around 40 hrs for 100, as well as some one with a serious commitment,to becoming a quality tradesman. any takers...oh and im aware c & g is next to useless:smilewinkgrin:

[rich83]

cheers guys deanotile and plantec

 

[rich83]

cheers, i just wanted to make it as appeling an offer as possible,hopefully some one down here checks out this post.

I echo deano's post its a shame about the shirt you are wearing,
have you tried the local trade stores, go in and speak to the staff and be as forthright with them as your were in your opening post, have a drive around any new developments, or larger private housing estates and have a look for any tilers vans, speak to them, we are a friendly bunch, and if the one you choose isn't friendly then more than likely you would not want to work with them.
I wish you all the best for you future.

Do you have any tools at the moment

 

[rich83]

cheers,no tools at min,im keeping my eye out though. its not me in the pick it van wolfswinkle,tearin up a club near you soon:smilewinkgrin:

 

[steve187]

[rich83]

[Time's Ran Out]

Norwich - who lives in Norwich!
Not sure if there are any tilers in the south* but if there are I'am sure someone will snap you up, but if not do a Norman Tebbit and get on your bike.

[Mr Tiler]

[rich83]

yep,id do a year for 100 a week,so tiler would gradually make more from me throughout the year.i would work a whole year for free ,but living costs money,more and more by the week:mad2:

IMHO the main reason you cant find any one to take you on is a bad attitude

 

[Mr Tiler]

it would only be certain people off this site who would say something like that about me.

 

[Mr Tiler]

it would only be certain people from this site to say something like that mate.... and the only time I have ever been funny on here is when I had been attacked so much I simply had enough of it so I felt I had to be on the defencive all the time... and it is a shame but I suppose it doesn't even matter as everyone has came to there conclusions about me so I will just keep coming back with questions and seeking advice and hope for the best.

I do hope I am not one of those peeps as I actually like you. I did think you were a chancer but I now do see you are genuinely trying to better yourself.

 

[Mr Tiler]

nah dave I don't have a problem with ya mate.... in fact I don't have a problem with anyone... I came on the site with the best intentions and somewhere it just went wrong I suppose haha! as you say I just want to better myself and do well in life and wrippin people of is not the way to do it.

 

[DHTiling]

[Mr Tiler]
