Desalcott dem paying small morney

How much is small money? Less than 10,000?

If you female, you stand a better chance of getting in from what I hear. Fed up apply and never get a reply self.

Serious?? They give females preference in ops? That's certainly odd but I will be happy to get shortlisted for an interview...

If you good on a mattress you stand a good chance of getting a job in there.

Understand where I coming from yet?

^^^Can't believe it takes folks that long to figure these things out....

Just spend a few months in industry and you'll learn a lot....not all of it pertaining to the job but still very enlightening.

You learn how things really work.....
Don't get me wrong if you get a job and never learnt these things it might be a blessing in disguise in that is doesn't colour your judgement.

Sometimes the "extra knowledge" is more burden than blessing.

Still good luck to all those applying.

Industry is no bed of roses. This "push two button" sheit men peddling here was long time, when you had a dozen Operators on a single shift. The numbers are half that now on average, so it means your learning curve will be steep. If you cannot follow and learn, then rookies, some of whom you may have even trained, will pass you and become your boss. I know things are hard, but if industry is your chosen career, make sure it is for all the right reasons, and not just for a job, because the demands of shift, family, career progression will eat you alive if you cannot balance/manage them.
There are too many broken marriages, alcoholism, burnouts and suicides in this job as it is already.

[Monkey Man]

you right.. but talking from your experience... it have general similarities in d industry but men work environment cud be something else outside your company....

and the comments in this ched by some users continue to support my belief dat SOME operators lack total common sense and their level of intelligence is only about valve

buh that is jos monky man experience.. you have yours. i hav mine

[trinidrift]

Being in this industry for as long as I have so I have seen alot. Some sectors the learning curve is so steep that you are thrown into the deep end and you have to figure it out alone, while in some cases you are given the tools and sometimes you are helped and given the tools. I personally have worked with people saying that they are going to make it their personal business to ensure I am fired, was trained but the very guy whose job I took. I have seen big men act worse than women gossiping and creating bacchanal. My advice to anyone who wants to get into this industry learn to play politics because in some instances that is the only way to ensure survival or progress. If you have a straight forward no nonsense attitude believe me a target is gonna be painted on your back so fast

[tr1ad]

boy that is the reality, i chose to do my work and stay out of the politics even refusing to brown nose to get ahead ...just all about results and now i'm home.
Never would i Make it personal, but What Going on is now a personal vendetta to ensure that even though i left in 2015 and they currently have vacancies, that they trash my applications

[trinidrift]

So true

[tr1ad]

but on a reals,
level one PPO city & guilds could get me anything?

[trinidrift]

I doubt now the minimum is diploma. Level 3 cert not even enough

[gencon]

I home one year now. People will do anything to ensure there job gets done, even physically threaten you. Which is why I am home. I had no choice but to leave. My career has been destroyed.

[gencon]

To make it worse they also trashed my reputation with other companies i have worked for in the past and I cannot get work elsewhere. Which is why I am working taxi now.

[trinidrift]

I know the feeling. Was home for 3 years and if it wasn't for a good friend and my brother I would have never know my next job was

Well certainly if that's d only option then no thanks..rather wuk taxi instead if I have to..

[Cantmis]

The key too survival !

[trinidrift]

Considering the times any package is reasonable for people who are not employed not for anyone who has a better situation

[vaiostation]

Well I have a diploma in met, certificate in ppo, 2yrs experience as an operator, 1yr as mechanical technician.
Just so people know is just to verify documents, and I've been through this process with them a fair amount of times and never got through, so my hopes not too high.

I've had similar experiences myself. Sometimes you hadda make a choice between your life or your job. I might not be making much money now, but at least I still living.

You might (might) get called for interview as a PO. What you applied for btw?

I got called in to verify docs twice. Were they particularly interested in any docs?
