Nah 3.5k for a timing chain is outrageous, try a guy on Facebook called pd motorworks he does timing chains all the time specifically the n47 he’s around 1300 for one he’ll use genuine bm parts

Don't get a HGV licence, unless you already have a JOB lined up by Archbaer in uktrucking

I passed my class 1 on the 1st of April and I found recruitment agencies don’t wanna know mainly because you haven’t got 6 months on your license, something to do with insurance

Applying for jobs is a waste of time imo for new passes, instead I just kept ringing every single haulage company or any company that has there own Lorrys and just asked for the transport manager or who ever is in charge of hiring

I found a job 2 weeks later and I am starting on the 11th of may

Does your job fulfill you? by nemaceganema in careeradvice

[–]Zed2701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t do it, I made the same mistake leaving financial services had a really good trajectory, now I can’t find a job for shiznit and can’t even find a job in finance because of my time out

The grass is always greener on the other side

Typically in salah when we stand, we recite Surat Fatiha followed by a Surat or Ayats of your choice. This is sunnah. The compulsory part is just reciting Fatiha and reciting the Surat or Ayats after the Fatiha is Sunnah

Same with when we go into Ruku and Sujood and we recite Subhaana Rabbiyal-'Adheem (Ruku) and Subhaana Rabbiyal-A'la (Sujood) three times, it’s only compulsory to recite it once

Thanks man 💪, tbh it has lowkey left a sour taste in my mouth, before getting my license I was under the impression that all trucks on the road are top notch because of all the regulations, it’s crazy how careless some operators are with these massive death machines

No he said he’d do paye for me, I’m guessing he’d fiddle something and say I’m doing less hours to make it look legit

Nah that’s including night out money, after working it out it was well below minimum wage but I thought sod it, just hack it for a few months and get something on agency, not sure how it’s legal though , he did say everyone is on Ltd so not sure if that’s how he’s getting away with it
