(15 Jan 2020, 2:39 pm)WheelBus1986 Hi All,Depends if you go on spare for Consett work or if you end up on cathedrals/Chester locals. Earliest start 6:11 last clock off 00:03 (mo-fr) 6:02-00:03 (sa) don’t work sundays / bank holidays. Saturday shifts are longer than mon-fri (standard rule on all rotas). On the road time can be up to 5:30hrs. Hope this helps before you get allocated to your mentor.
Long time lurker, first time poster!
I am starting as a driver with GNE in the next few weeks out of the new Consett Depot.
Just wondering if anyone on here works at Consett can tell me what its like there? Shift patterns Etc?
As a side note, ive lived in the HGV world for a lot of years and have a list of "must haves" with me when out and about. What do you as PCV drivers have in your kit bags that makes life easier for you on a day to day basis?
Cheers,
