There is a recruitment company phoning round everyone on the books who has J41 mentioned on their CV's.
the opening line is "I am phoning you about a great opportunity in the UK"
Then opens up about a large regional operator.
"er mate that's obviously Eastern"
"Well yes it is."
"Well any UK national with a J41 rating will have worked for them before"
"And the only others will be helitrans and that greek lot"
"yes I am finding that"
"Not having much success then?"
"Not really, one bloke in Newcastle said he would rather gouge his testicle off with a wooden stick and drive a bin lorry for the rest of his life than work for eastern again"
"ok mate thanks for calling"
"not even slightly interested?"
"Nah your OK, have you got any bin lorry driver jobs on the books?"
laughter and "bye"
