[QUOTE="Ukbrown, post: 2353839, member: 64161"] I work in the uk. Honestly I think your better off where you are. Below are some of the reasons why. Top rate for a driver is approx £14 an hour . There is no seniority over here. We do not bid on routes. if your lucky you will be assigned a route. if not you will be cover driving but don't do it too well or they will never put you on a route. The union is a lot weaker here & it is not compulsory to join. Our pensions are also a lot worse then yours & the cost of living is quite high. The house prices are just stupid. The average wage in the uk is £26,000 the average House price is £230,000. Holiday wise we kick your arse once you get through your probation & survive a year you get 20 days holiday & 8 public / national holidays a year. After 5 years you get an extra day a year up to a max of 25. Before your first full year you earn 1.6 days of holiday per month. As we don't have seniority holiday is first come first served but no time off after a public holiday. [/QUOTE]
