Listen easondown,
I asked the question in good faith, then people get involved being bitter and twisted. If you can't ask for info on this forum, what is the point?
You seem to have some kind of personal grudge easondown. You always come out from under your stone when I say something. Do yourself a favour and back off, before you make more of a tit of yourself than you are doing already.
I have already stated how lucky I am to have got the offer from DHL. I already stated how lucky I was to get my break in the first place. Where does your problem lie?
Quite frankly, the fact that people are out of work is desperately disappointing for all of us. I am lucky to be in the right place at the right time.
That doesn't mean I should be criticised for my good fortune does it?? And it certainly doesn't mean i should not seek advice from experienced freight dogs. I don't think you are one of those, so kindly p?ss off as you really annoy me.
Other than easondown......everybody thanks very much for your advice. I hope also that those of you who are displaced will be in gainful employment soon.
