Default New Job & possibly the best staff discount ever!?

Went for a job on friday! by the time i got home they were on the phone offering the position to me!

its 3.5k more than Im on now!

& I get cheap Optimax!

Its a oil company Im working for & they own a Shell garage in Bristol where I will get discount!

I think that is better staff discount than when i used to get free beer workin in bars!
