In Topic: Who's for a Pay Rise............
07 April 2011 - 10:40
Me? No. Why have missed something, or have I misunderstood the stuff sent out by the unions? It's good money, even for shift work, don't get me wrong! But it's not like you could set yourself up as owner-operator like someone with an LGV or PCV licence could if they wanted to. Perhaps that's why: golden handcuffs?
Having said this, an old acquaintance of mine was left in a right state mentally after a suicide jumped out in front of the train he was driving - perhaps there's an element of danger money involved... -

Maybe that's including overtime, as I've see GBP44k quoted. That's the most you'll ever earn, though - and with little by way of transferable skills learnt on the job, prospects once fully qualified can't be brilliant... -

Turns out our payrise this year is funded by strip-mining personal bonuses. So those technical staff like me that are considered capable of making a measurable individual impact on company performance are paying so that those that technical staff who don't don't quit.
As a result, my payrise will come from whichever of the three companies that have offered me a job make me the best offer. Changing employer is the only way I've ever achieved a meaningful payrise these last dozen years... -

I think the word you're looking for is 'carrier', not 'bracket'??? Wheel size aside, if you have everything there to fit the brakes to a Mk4 Golf, they will go straight onto a Mk1 Fabia -

There's been a guide on fabia-vrs.com for yonks FWIW.
@ Wagdog: If water DOESN'T come out of the bottom of the doors after it rains, you've got a problem with the drain holes. Sealing the doors should make the water run out over the sill and onto the ground, not past the door card and onto the carpet. If NOTHING comes out when it rains, your door is full of water! ;)
