Will be getting a phone call before or on friday, then will get a trial for 1-2 hours to see how i do, they cover petrol costs which is gooood :fcuk:
The place does mainly currys, they do pizza's also which is better for my stomach...
Anyone have any hints or tips to make sure i get the job? (Yes drive safely and no handbrake turns :p) I know all of the area but i cant remember the roads for shit :n: will be reading the local map this week lol
Thanks
(I just hope the saxo doesn't play up on the day lol :wall:)

Business insurance?
The duty manager told me about that on the phone, it be around an extra £30 a year on my insurance apparently, if i don't get it, car gets impounded and i get points on my licence :omg: but i will get it, better to be safe than sorry

yeah just remember mate, most places dont have proper delivery insurance, so if anything happens whilst you are delivering or if you get pulled over then you need to have a good story ready. Bit dodgy depending on the area, get somenutters that dont want to pay for sumthings. On the plus side you can get decent tips and if you round up, you can make a fortune, my pal does it for the local chinese and makes roughly £40-50 a night, for 4 or 5 hours work

Go work at dominos pizza, £5 p/h, and £1 for each delivery you do, which is for your petrol mainly at the end of each night.
And business insurance included.

When looking in your little bag for change, take a long while, the person you're delivering to will 9 times out of 10 say, "Keep the change mate"

I honestly think delivery driving is a pretty decent second income, my brother used to do it for an indian... it was cash in hand..
I mean everyone here is a 'car' enthusiast and personally I love driving just listening to music etc & you're getting paid for it.
I would just recommend getting a sat nav tbh when you get paid because sometimes they are so handy

How do you apply?
Couldn't find anything on their website, did have "quick" browse though.

I work at dominos, 5.72 an hour I believe it is, get a quyid per delivery. Work 3 nights a week for 4-7 hours each time, leave with 25 quid in cash as a minium usually each night from petrol and tips and then you get the wage into your account.
Perfect student job tbh

Get the newest A-Z you can get your hands on due to housing estates getting knocked up fast these days, also, if you get teh job i recommend buying a maglight or similar heavy torch as will make it easier to find door numbers etc and doubles as a legal defense for the 1st time someone tries to rob you
