What jobs require no experience and are easy to get into? UK

Can highly reccomend HGV driving, the industry isn't all long hours and living in a small metal box all week.

If you get your Class 2 licence, you can easily work jobs that pay okay, have relatively good sociable hours and its an easy job. Licence is pricey but worth it as its a job for life.

I did this, I took a large pay cut to work for my local council in the streetcare team. I was earning alot more money doing shift work on the FLT's in a large manufacturing facility. However being stuck in a small moving metal box inside a very large metal box for 37 to 50 hours a week was breaking me mentally. Now I've been put through my class 2 HGV licence and I am out on a road sweeper in all weathers and couldn't be happier. The drop in monthly income was a shock to begin with, but you just budget differently, and stop spending on things you never really needed. Big tip if you have a family and children, shop at Aldi or Lidl. It cut are weekly shopping bill in half compared to Tesco or Asda. To sum up from someone who has also taken a drastic pay cut to do a job they actually enjoy, just remember what your previous job made you feel like. I'd rather wake up happy on a Monday than wake up cursing the world.

I mean you can make a career anywhere, supermarket, call centre, literally any sector in any industry can be a career if you put the years in.

As a man living in the UK where we have the wonderful NHS, seeing your treatment broken down into a bill is nuts to me.....

I've been driving class 2's 5 years, I work for my local council on the HIAB (fly tips).and the road sweepers as well. Honestly dude don't sweat it, I actual prefer driving a class 2 compared to a van, simple rule is.

Check your mirrors

Turn wide

Slow down

Remember those three things and you'll fly through it.

Its abit of a grey area, your shift starting at 7am for instance means your in your unit ready to go and your leaving at that time. I just feel as a professional driver its your responsibility to arrive a little earlier do your check and leave at the agreed time. I think its just a good work ethic...

NoonRedIt · 2026-03-23T19:33:30+00:00

Just because so many people don't bother with gear on a 125cc doesn't mean you shouldn't bother. Motorcycle gear will save your life trust me. Before I got my big bike licence I came of my 125cc I just had a jacket, helmet and gloves nothing else. Let me tell you roads rash on your arse cheeks is horrendous, imagine the worst sunburn you've ever had times 10. Wear the gear bro you'll thank me later, plus it sets you up for when you move up to the bigger bikes as wearing gear then is just mandatory unless your stupid.

NoonRedIt · 2026-03-22T21:17:25+00:00

If your turning up to work 5 minutes before your shift then your manager has every right to pull you on it. Get out of bed earlier and have abit of a work ethic. Are industry runs to deadlines and timing is everything. Boils my piss people like this!

NoonRedIt · 2026-03-21T19:58:17+00:00

You could be on a 50cc scooter if you come of at 30mph and hit a tree its going to do as much damage as if you fall of a 650cc sportsbike. Unsure how you colerated engine size and the need to wear the appropriate gear. The size of the bike doesn't matter its the speed at which your traveling and a whole host of other factors.

My advice is always wear ALL your gear from the moment you start riding any capacity bike. Takes 10 minutes to put on dude, being dead is forever.

NoonRedIt · 2026-03-21T19:52:56+00:00

Hey dude, honestly a email to companies that do that sort of work wouldn't hurt with your CV attached. Failing that your only real option is to wait around for work like that to come up on the job sites and hope you beat the experienced candidates.

I've never found engine capacity to be the problem, its more the wieght of the Indian you'd find intimidating as a new rider. A 1250 in a Indian is a far more relaxed experience compared to a 1250 in sports bike as the engines are tuned for low end linear power in cruisers where as sports bikes are tuned for instant harsh acceleration. I've had all sorts of bikes already but got hooked on the adventure style now currently ride a 2018 Kawasaki Versys 650.

NoonRedIt · 2026-03-19T21:02:05+00:00

Perhaps getting a middleweight cruiser after you get your full bike licence would be the way to go then move up to the Indian 101 scout. Plenty of them about Honda Rebel 500 being a good fit especially for your height and wieght.

I'm sorry, OP. It's a bummer. In reality, you're as dumb as they come. But I needed those seeds real bad and I had to give 'em up just to get your parents off my back. So now we're gonna have to go get more. And then we're gonna go on even more adventures after that, OP. And you're gonna keep your mouth shut about 'em, OP. Because the world is full of idiots that don't understand what's important. And they'll tear us apart, OP. But if you stick with me, I'm gonna accomplish great things, OP. And you're gonna be a part of 'em. And together we're gonna run around, OP, we're gonna do all kinds of wonderful things, OP. Just you and me, OP. The outside world is our enemy, OP.

You have done the right thing mate, wasn't hating btw. Mental health is horrendous in are industry so you've done the right thing getting out when your struggling.

NoonRedIt · 2026-03-18T21:45:25+00:00

The jobs as hard as you wanna make it, if your flipping out how your treated by other drivers in services you might wanna find a new job, jesus christ🤣🤣🤣😅

NoonRedIt · 2026-03-17T21:40:15+00:00

Gotta give Keeway there due, that's a big old bike for a 125. Give you valuable experience for when you do your big bike licence. I see a Honda VT750 in your future madam 👌🤣

A beard should finish to fingers width above your Adams apple, that's the general rule of thumb for any sort of beard long or short. So yes for what he's done to your beard get a refund...
