Hi,
Firstly I thought id post this in GD as I feel its a more apropriate place to talk about a career than motors...
Im looking for advice on this career choice really, and any in-house HGV driver opinions, do you enjoy your job? whats the perks? downsides etc?
Anyway, so Im 21 and stuck in a job I dont enjoy. Ive been thinking for a while that Id like a career in HGV driving.
Ive looked up the training courses and it seems its going to cost a couple of thousand pounds to get my cat C+E (class 1). I understand that before i can get this I need to get my cat c (rigid class 2).
Now, all of these training companys claim that theres always thousands of HGV jobs out there, and there always will be, even in times like these...
But Im not sure how true this is... as I hear of drivers being made redundant etc...
Is there still a big demand for drivers?
any help would be great thanks!
