Watling JCB were advertising for Fitters in last months Earthmovers Magazine.

I worked for a firm that did Plant and agri, the summer was a horrible time of year, I could be in Brum at 6.0am fitting a breaker to a machine then be in a field at 10pm under a Combine!! I got out when I could, do wish I'd tried to get in some where like Watling or on the JD apprentice scheme at Brooksby College.

As for Plant operators cards, I now belive the card you need is CPCS, and you need to keep an hours log book when you have passsed your test as you start off with a red card and this changes to blue after 3 years if you have enough hours under your belt. Rand training at Lincoln are where the lads at work go for their tests.

Good luck which ever way you go.

Only if you liked 19hr days and at 17 the money wasn't worth the overtime!!!

this is correct you have a book that you have to write how many hours and what machine/machines you have worked in a week and this has to be signed by who ever is incharge of where you are working.
although a boy i was working with last week was having his book signed as driving a 25ton tracked machine when he was actually on a dumper all week so as you might guess the whole scheme is a load of poo!
