new job>?? lol

 

Hi there,

Im the director of commercial management for Ford in the South East

send me an up to date photo and i shall go over your application

 

I work with Dave as a Director and as Dave will be out on holiday this week could you send the pictures to me

Thanks

 

you might want to start by calling them ford - not fords

 

Why do ppl say Fords?? Just irritates me!
Whats with the 's' on the end? The company is called Ford. No extra 's' required.
Not meaning to be mean but just always bugs me.

You wouldn't say "I wana work for Vauxhalls" or "the Audis garage is expensive" or "seen the latest Sonys advert".

Edit to say: "you beat me to it Foreign RS" LOL!

Hi heather

I work with rich or i should say he's my 'bitch'

Getting into the offices especially from outside is extremely hard and mainly involves luck and knowing the right people. www.jobsite.co.uk is one that they use apart from that get Rich to go upstairs and talk to HR about it.

 

unless you do actually mean you want to work fro fords... they are quite a big company that sell ex fleet and nearly new vehicles... one outlet is based in winsford cheshire

 

what is funny is the fact people get irate about people calling it fords

 

whats wrong with calll ing it Fords

I dont say "Im off to the Ford garage" I'd say "Im going to Fords" Guess it depends tho, accents and stuff??

 

well bored

 

Thats exactly what I say, but then I am from Surrey.

As Nick said its very difficult getting into ford, you have to be very talented, i know, i work there

 

 

lol

 

BTW can you tell Rich i got his text, can't go tonight gotta finish off some painting

 

I worked for a Ford subsidiary for over 6 years but found that the graduates get the cream of the promotions so long as they are prepared to keep relocating every 2-3 years. I wasn't, so I left almost three years ago,

Best benefit was the staff discount on cars - up to 3 a year, but you had to hold onto each for 9 months. Once you bought one car you could get discount on parts too - surprisingly, they didn't seem to mind me buying Sierra bits "for" the wifes Escort!

Now work for GM (I know, I'll get my coat!) and the expression "Same shit, different shovel" could have been written for this situation.

More and more car makers are using agency staff, on fixed term contracts so they have no trouble downsizing, and they keep their names out of the press when jobs have to go. There are employment agents who specialise in filling these roles, but remember that people in these jobs don't get the benefits.

 

Nice one Dave

Must get my humor up to par somehow

 

yeah no probs, he read it when we got in!! missed a good one though!! me and rich have been asked to do grudge match for performance ford, haha!!

 

yeah they may not like that!
