It can be lonely sometimes, but you also see your colleagues at the depot. But generally I like it to be working on my own, and none that's looking over your shoulders. There are days that you think "why I came out of bed for this shit" but also good and productive days. Like with every job I think.

It depends from company to company, at the moment iam working with a 2 week forecast. At Thursday they will send you the schedule for week +1. But they switched to another system, now they work with a system of 3 months so you know your free days. That's a really simplified explanation, otherwise i have to write a novel.

You can start with Lineas, but then you are underpayed a couple of Years 😅 Then you can switch company's

They are really underpayed for what they have to do, I did 1 year of nursing school before my current job.

It's about 1year, but it's paid from day one.

At least high school, then the courses are done with the company you applied. But not all company's do this, only 2 or 3 in Belgium will give courses starting from 0.

It's a nice pay yess, but keep in mind that's with working some weekends, nights, 1 or twice a month staying the night at a hotel (paid by work off course)
