New job
« on: 09 August 2014, 18:36:24 »
Some may recall I was looking for a new direction job wise after 18 yrs supporting people with drug problems,far too stressful! Well I got made redundant this week and have just got a start date in the local Jaguar/land rover factory making the new discovery sport. It's only agency for the first year and then a possible contract. Never worked in a factory before but hopefully it will be ok.

10,000 applicants for 250 jobs and it was a very thorough recruitment process indeed with online psychometric, manual assessment at the factory and a very lengthy interview so quite pleased with myself really :)

Well done you OMG, it seems to be much more common these days for people to completely change careers. The jury is still out on whether I was lucky or unlucky staying in - more or less - the same career throughout. :-\

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.
