Idiots! No wonder this country is in a mess when businesses act like that.

Think you've been a bit hasty especially in the current weather.

When finished your shift you could use your sandwich board on the front of you motor as a snow plough to get you home!!!

NO JOKE Gems ............. they were deadly serious ......(i actually re read the ad on me Iphone afterwards it said NOWT about working in Tescos) it actually read

"You will be advising British Gas customers how to save energy in their homes, using heat loss calculations & various methods to ensure they obtain the maximum cost savings & efficiency out of their gas appliances"

Where-as ACTUALLY its standing at the door in Tescos saying "Excuse me Love, can I interest you in changing you gas supplier" ....

To which to "Usual" reaction is ..."**** OFF I'm busy" (if you get a reply at all!!!!!)

Presumably you are having us on?

If not, the "position" you originally applied for should have been clear enough for all to understand! :rulez:

Just think Keith it might be a missed opportunity. If you had taken the job within four or five years you could have risen through the ranks and become a meter reader.
