I handed my notice in today as an Employability Tutor and am starting with Ingeus as an Employment Advisor at the end of the month

Aside from a jump in pay, better benefits package, better job security etc. there are a few motoring related bonuses!

My car insurance should be slightly cheaper because of my job title
It's 6 miles extra a day, but I won't need to drive for work so I will put about the same miles on my car
I wont need to pay for business insurance
I wont have to drive in rural areas for work, which gets my car up to the eyes!
It takes about the same time to get to work but it's more dual carriageway
But most importantly more pay means more mods!

They were on when I got the car. Think it might have been Performance Stars in York because I have a sticker with their website on on my back window. My car had stripes, mud flaps and rear tints when I got it so could have been any of those. Seems they are no longer in business.

Cheers guys!

Forgot to mention I was interviewed by the manager for the city centre branch and when she asked if I would be willing to travel there I said no because I love my car too much and that would spoil it, so they gave me my first preference

Good luck!
Wish I got a job closer to home so I didn't have to use the miles.

Doing alright with 23 people into work in the last 2 months - 575% my quarterly target!

Only downfall is I'm not on the forums as much as I just never find the time like I used to
