Hey Folks

Post by PODD »

I've just accepted a job offer for a Collections driver at our local depot The hours suit me perfectly (12-18.00pm) with 1 in 4 Saturdays. I've not been given much information as my induction is in a couple of days. Heads up required for what I'm in for?

Hey. Maybe a quick driving test (longer if EV's ?).

Some health and safety, and pda use etc.

Also your driving route and to meet your new colleagues.
