Tell me about it. All I here is companies can't find tradesmen but seem reluctant to train anyone up.

All down to what it costs to employ you & the cost of training, with no experience you are an expensive item to keep , The days of starting as a Plumbers mate are long gone, company's need you to earn money for them ! not cost money, don't believe the story's about a shortage of tradesmen, there is however a shortage of work around, and what there is goes to the guys with plenty of experience and even those find it difficult, Lots of competition out in the market, and you have to prove that your better than the last man,

Oh well, have to see what happens at least I still have my other trade to keep me employed.

Try Plastering or Tiling pays better & not the expensive layout on tools and on-going training costs , even worse if you want to do gas, forever paying out average 1G a year
