[QUOTE="phil d, post: 452998, member: 27126"] I liked to move around a lot, after getting made redundant about a year after coming out of my time, I decided to look after number one and sod everybody else! I kept moving around, a few years here a few years there, if I was offered more money then I went, simple as that, If I didn't like the working conditions I went, it made for a variety of experiences and was a lot of fun. Take the hotel for example, the advert was for a maintenance engineer, the other 2 lads were an ex postman, and a diyer, lol.When they found out what I could do they put me in charge of building systems, looking after not only the day to day stuff, but also the telecoms, ITnetwork and a lot of other stuff, In one week alone I saved them £3k by doing some repair work in house that was previously done externally ( stainless steel welding), unfortunately after 6 months of proving myself I asked for another £1 an hour, they were not forthcoming so it was tools in the truck and move on. I did about 2 years at BT, then got out as it was going silly, went to NTL telewest, just as they were being taken over by VM, left after a spat with management, got asked to go back by VM, sorted a load of lettuced out for them on the local network, and was then replaced by a pillock who'd been fired by NTL for being carrotted at work, in the telecoms game a lot of it is on the "old boy " network, you can get away with murder if you are one of the lads, I wasn't! I've absolutely no loyalty to anyone except myself these days and it suits me that way, get bored and move on. [/QUOTE]
