We are not moaning about nothing and you are insulting us and I can say my kids turned out fantasticWho raised this generation you're moaning about? Depending on your age it could've been you....so you dropped the ball....if not then its your children who raised this generation....so what went wrong???
Every generation likes to have a moan at the next.
At one time the elder generation looked at the Beatles and Elvis Presley as sexual bad influences to the young generation....
true I've met younger people than me who I think are bone idle but then I've also met some really lay about oldies
But we had real aspersions of a career that would last a lifetime and now have one, most jobs now are temporary or 0hrs, a lot of kids these days wanna be YouTube stars or famous. Ffs
Good to see you back Glen. I was only looking at your profile yesterday thinking it had been a long time since you last wrote.Firstly hello guys, it's been a while since I posted or did any staffing but work is crazy which is leaving very little time for anything else, which leads nicely into the reason for this thread.
What's happening with the young electricians of today. They either seem to want the earth and its mother or seem really uninterested, I've been trying to get someone to help us out and its bloody hard work . I've been in talks with a young spark who 7 days ago all but said he wanted to come to us and wasn't happy where he was, I know the lad and offered him an immediate start but he's proving hard work to sort a start date.
Then another lad two weeks ago rang me asking for work to essentially finish his nvq portfolio so I offered him some work immediately only for me to chase him 2 days later where he said I've got a job so no thanks.
I'm not going to paint all youngsters the same but the ones I'm encountering lately leave a lot to be desired, the first question seems to be , how much will I earn, what other perks are there, do I get a van etc etc surely the 1st question should be asking about their duties
