Well maybe you should keep that kind of opinion to yourself cos all your doing is making people feel that there is far better opertunities out there when in reality there is not a lot of work at the moment. We are in 2011 not 2008 the money is just not there at the moment if it was I would be more than happy to pay it.

The job is actually not that bad once on site all food and drink is free as they have a catering company onsite also there is a chance of free accomatition.

Also they are paid for all breaks in actual fact most of the men are only working between 8 and 9 hours but are being paid 12 hours. I have said that the job is for 4 months but the job is not due to finish until April/may next year so could end up being on site for 8 months.
 
perhaps,could,maybe?????davie wernt you on a while ago advertising this job for £15 an hour SAME JOB SAME PLACE and now you have the audacity to try and come on here berating SCAFFOLDERS for giving their opinion on £11 an hour????get a grip mate id say to everyone check back on his posts,hes cut the dosh by £4 an hour.the rate is crap and all your offering is maybes,remember you get what you pay for.

Hi there yes you will find that if you look back you will see it at £15 per hour for night shift and if you read the ad this time you would see that it still says £15 for night shift. you should really get you facts right first as at no point in any of the ads i have posted does it say £11 for night shift.
 
ps anyone who offers you a job and starts his pitch with quote davie THE JOBS ACTUALLY NOT THAT BAD,well would you go for it lol i personally wouldnt.

lets break £15 for NIGHTSHIFT DOWN,quarter to tax and ni then theres digs,petrol to get there then food then you have to pay a fee to be paid just as the lads say its not good is it.

£15 an hour for ALL HOURS DAVIE,unless you have edited it my friend these am sure you will find are the facts am a wrong??????
 
This is what I mean maybe not for you but there is plenty of Good Scaffs from the Inverness area that I am sure would agree that since the job is on their door step then the rates of pay are decent. Like I said if it was in Glasgow then you would prob be on it yourself
 
no i wouldnt be on it myself as id have no intrest in being fcked over for £4 an hour,and personally am very happy in my little nuclear plant thank you for the offer but you can ram it NO WAY ID LINE YOUR ROBBING POCKETS MY FRIEND.
 
Sorry but I fail to under stand were this short fall of £4 an hour is coming from. Oh well thats right its ok for you in your little nuclear plant just remember that not ever 1 out there has the luck of being well paid in a little nuclear plant. I am sure that if you where sitting in the house finding work hard to come by (like most people) then you would consider a job like this.
 
it not down to luck davie its down to hard work over the years luck plays no part in getting work in nuclear plants,so we can rule that out have you edited your 1st post yet i bet you have this alone will show you up for what you are,you seem to have much to say to scaffolders as in what they should or shouldnt do WHATS YOUR SCAFFOLDING CREDENTIALS MATE???

your type prey on people who are finding it hard to obtain employment if that wasnt hard enough for them they have to contend with your sh1te rates and then your robbery of £4 an hour,shame on you.
 
i can see your point celtic as the rate aint the best in the world, but at the same time davie has a good point aswell, work isnt like it used to be an at the end of the day he is offering men work, free food, an poss free accomadation! if u take that into consideration an you were having to pay your own digs an food then it would probably work out 3pound an hour it would be costing you. so ask yourself if it was a job offering 14-15 pound an hour an 19-20 on overtime then you would be replying differently. dont get me wrong celtic am not trying to start an argument iam just trying to see it from a diff side. i dont see it as a bad deal altho the rates not 2 good.
 
your quite entitled to your point mate and point taken too,but this weasel who i bet aint even a scaff is on here berating scaffs when hes bumping £4 an hour from the previous rate,then has the audacity to try to right himself by quoting the present work situation and try make us belive this is a good job.........its piss poor the rates shocking and the promise of free this free that is just that a promise mate.

with the power generating industries ( hydro electric, nuclear and oil ) making record profits and puting the price of energy up, why are they pleading poverty and driving the rates of the contractors down. OR ARE THEY !

They are greedy fukkers.
If they earned £1 trillion profit, it'll still not be enough... :notrust:
 
What really upsets me about agencies is there no fecking NEED for them in recruitment for the Construction Industry.

I have worked in the game for over 40 years and never once rang an agency,(this by the way is the only way to stop them operating but it aint going to happen)

I was on one occasion "Head Hunted" by a recruitment Company that rang me, I got the job and was on a good salary until I eventually left them.I worked directly for the company not an agency

The agencies are just middle men, the scaffolders human plant, the agencies supply plant to contractors and as in all business at a "mark up"

They are fighting each other on price and the main contractors are playing them off one against the other to get the lowest quote

The Principle Contractors and Government Departments are the main reason that the agencies have a hold on the labour market.By it's(PC/ Gov) relentless quest to drive labour cost's down and profits up.

Trade Unions came into being after a group of farm labourers had had enough of being driven into the ground and demanded a living wage.

With respect the complaint of not clearing a grand on nightshift does not quite match the suffering of the Tolpuddle Martrys
 
i totally agree with celtic and rigger,the £11 rate is probably on a self employed basis.no rights whataso ever tap on the shoulder when the partys over,no notice no holiday pay.
he will get guys to do it though out of shear necessity,and the hope of work till christmas.
