Don't bother to apply for this lads, the clown is a control freak who has all the staff scared to death, half the time they are walking on eggshells and cannot do or say anything to a client without his authorisation
Friendly office atmosphere you have got to be fxxking joking.

As a footnote to GM's post .
Several years ago I arranged an interview with this company. The interview was agreed to be for 8.00 am sharp, as I needed to be at a meeting later on that morning. I arrived there at 7.45am and waited for the interviewer to arrive. At 8.45am he still had not appeared and my time availability was expiring, so I told the estimator there I could not wait any longer and left. Draw your own conclusions.
I posted this job ad reluctantly but did not want to deprive anybody of a chance of employment.

Yes it is interesting to see how potential employers treat potential employees. There is definitely an air of " someone must be in need of work so we can f**k them around" even more so since the invention of Human Resources.
Anyway Binthere did you get the job?

Ha Ha! from that day to now I have never had a call back from him! says it all really. My only reason for looking to change was the office would have been much closer to home. In the end I resigned from the current employer and slipped into the state of retirement I am now in.

Is richard still there ?

Is Christine still at Allscaff?
