Jacobite 2023

The first comment on that Facebook post is a classic!

 

"Ability to spot ORR inspectors is an essential skill in this role"

 

Classic British humour at it's best....

 

Shame this advert is about 6 months too late...

Doesn't bode well for the rest of the peak summer season given the length of the recruitment process - unless they have an interim solution.

 

I mean tbf to WCR it can’t be the easiest location in which to find masses of people wanted relatively low paid work. But it is a good opportunity for some people and I hope they find the amount of staff they want.

 

Update on WCRC website (dated 07 August) confirming Jacobite cancelled up until 09 Aug then adding that only the afternoon services are cancelled on the 9th and 10th. The morning services appear to be going to operate, something has changed - good news!

 

Blimey £12 and hour and only a 7.5 hour day.

Is the the future of railtour stewarding?

 

Too far to commute?

 

I’ll pay you more to bend over all day and cut lettuce….

 

(The view may not be as good…)

 

I thought that. It's only a small amount less than what I earn, and I work full-time in an office. I've just Googled what the minimum wage is these days, and apparently it's £10.42. So the salary WCR is offering is above that by a decent way. It seems a very generous job offering to me. I wish them the best of luck with it.

 

You might want to re phrase that....

 

Depends what's up your alley....

 

The lettuce doesn't interest me lol

 

Clearly good spelling isn't a pre requisite for working at West Coast!

 

That is good news.

Let's hope this has been a harsh lesson learnt. Financially and reputationally, this will have hit hard.

 

Neither is punctuation, on this post - it's 'pre-requisite', noting the hyphen.
