Avoid unless you want your soul sucked from you

Pros

Get to drive broken vans and carry a brick (palm) while being treated like a slave, while management suck your youthfull soul from you daily..

Cons

Everything is broken but it'll be your fault it's broken, managers as usefull as a chocolate tea pot and section leaders don't know how to listen and take action on things unless it's trying to dump shifts on you without you even knowing, pay rate may say 9 pound an hour but your 4 weekly pay will come in shillings and tuppence.. and don't get me started on trying to get a holiday as your leader will decline it and then tell you what days you can have off that benefits them..
