Starting New Job....
Posted 18th May 2008 at 09:18 by Luke
Well, tomorrow sees me starting a new job by the White Rose Centre in Leeds. I'm working for a company called WSP Management Services - they design and oversee the construction of buildings and roads.
As it stands today, I'm not nervous really - maybe meeting new people is a bit daunting I suppose. A lad from my work is over there now, says it's so laid back compared to Morrisons. We can use our mobiles as we like, internet, e-mail, they have there own forum and it won't be as strict as Morrisons.
I'm quite looking forward to it, just gonna be annoying sometimes as it's a big commute - 12 miles each way on busy Ring Road traffic.

Suppose it isn't Mike.
I get held up for 10 minutes going and about 10-15 minutes coming home - journey is only 35 - 40 minutes each way.Posted 20th May 2008 at 21:51 by Luke

i have to travel 25miles to hospital for my placement every day, and the traffic is pretty heavy, get to go through a big tunnel though, thats about the only bonus!
The nhs / council won;t even pay the fuel charges!Posted 21st May 2008 at 07:56 by barrett

You mean they won't pay it if you use your own car for work use?
Still got the Focus?Posted 21st May 2008 at 13:32 by Luke

not for work though it for travel to s study placement, still a student, its a 5 year course lol.
aye still got the focus, really want a change, but there isn't much out there in the same price range that can beat it. Its been a great car, had it almost 4 years and apart from services and tyres and break pads, i havent had to do a single thing to it!Posted 21st May 2008 at 14:56 by barrett
