Start nightshift tonight... but where! Glasgow mail center!

Post by markjc1975 »

I have finally received word that i am to start the Xmas casual tonight... however, at my interview he put me down for bellshill in Glasgow, the euro center but my email just says i start tonight at the Glasgow mail center! no address and now i cant get a hold of angard to confirm where the hell i have to go. Anyone in similar situation? my plan is to go to the one near roystone as that is the only one coming in the google search and then leaving myself plenty of time to get to bellshill if need be. grateful for job but communication is dreadful!

Hi;

I'm in the same boat.
The placement which I applied for was in Barnhill so that's were I'm going to turn up tonight.
At least one of us will in the right place!

Google the mail centre's telephone number and call them direct to see if you are on the start list for tonight. It's your best way of knowing a definite answer and this way you don't have to go in and get turned away.

Sorry to hear that you've been left in the lurch by Angard.
As far as I know, if you've not been emailed then you have no shift so its probably not worth turning up on speck.
