Monteey this is normal mate My new contract is to March and then if BT think I am good enough to keep then they will offer a full term contract. (They should as I have already done 5 years so far) The reason for this new style employment was the result of BT being stuck with bad and untrainable staff who did not meet the grade. Back in the old days it was very hard to be sacked or laid off if you were no good. You should have no problems though as you have a engineering in ELV products. Give it a go you will have nothing to lose really and your training can be come in use if you wish not to stay. Employers love to see a BT type training certificate. Also its nice to know your kit is worth thousands of pounds gives you nice worm feeling that you are using kit that know one in the world has yet

Just a pity that not many of you know what to do it so just leave it in the van instead!

I believe its to stop attracting poor Intruder alarm engineers who like to build there own kit up by acquiring bits of BT kit.

Great, thanks for the advice on that, most helpful, will wait and see what the response is on Monday, hopefully good but not going to take anything for granted.

Will keep you posted as to what happens. Perhaps this is a good subject for one of these blog things haha

Thanks again guys just hope something comes out of it, if not has been a learning experience.

So Monteey, your next forum membership will be at www.thewonkytelephonesocketinstaller.co.uk then?

Monteey, if you get in and you are on your tools, remember the Eng's magic pass code (bit like the Masons funny hand shake) "Any two's a pair" Good luck mate
