yes i am back to self employed  again  have always  kept the safety net , but choose not to fit my own systems. over the years even right back to the lander's in tottenham days mid 80s  it seemed every one  wanted to be the boss.   it always payes to have a back up plan

untill the plan fails  yes at this point i think it would be loverly to be employed and get holiday pay and a pension but i was under the impression i had been

its often said on here that co's are the winners to the engineers that loose.

I have not just worked in the trade as an enginneer worked as sales surveyor for a national ,and on a small company in a corner shop that got very large and ended up with the largest showroom /shop in london with the only boss ,who every day used to wear a denim shirt and jeans and sweep the floor  and when we went out on a survey  we had to take a van and not wear a shirt and tie it worked and every job had to be connected to cs. until he retired sold up

 i still choose to be an enginneer. my last company i fiitted 100 to 150 jobs every year for the last 16 years again every  job has a connection right  up until late last year    you cannot stop  other people wanting to slow down  retire

  

 why is it all job adds want cv by email but still do not give their company name or if they are even approved

 

 what is the quote   I regret nothing      {  i am still learning something new every day}

 

so i am looking for work in the london essex borders day or weekly rates

tryied to apply for job today add does not give a company name  email cv only  no phone number

 

think about this what if add read send bank details and pin number to an unknown  email address

 

 i think i will pass on this one

Have you tried ringing round the local NSI and SSAIB companys? Thats would I would do.

yes phoned all the larger companies  and most of the smaller one had a few interviews and some 2nd interviews had several strange offers like will i work for cash in hand [no] or do i want to fit 2 or 3 visonic kit per day

 

most jobs are for  newbies and poorly paid  i have seen the same adds repeated many times  but several good prospects still ongoing

Hope you find somewhere cushty soon peter. Loads of fire engineer jobs in the city i keep noticing but might not be your area.

  Rob 

Wish i had done more fire in recent years seems to be a shortage of engineers  or some huge fire projects under way  i can 1st fix ok but  totaly rusty on the panels

Quick update got fed up with the chancers and the  gold rated company who after 2 interviews  and a job offer  for a position that does not exist yet as they will not know untill april if the have been granted the contract yet so pay and conditions are to be finalised .

 

 so have returned to subby  and started to pick up some work again {still aways need more}
