You misunderstand, direct facebooking from one digger to another - digger-level networking? Seems to be a highly efficient way of getting the word out about any jobs for zero effort at this end (saves on writing adverts), just mention it to the right facebook enthusiast and suddenly people are phoning and sending in CVs from all over :face-approve:

I did indeed.. apologies... there are a few places where people harvest adverts
I am sure that its a good way of getting people... nothing different from the old email list.. or the more cumbersome.. phoning round... However, it does mean that there is no protection anymore from employers...
recently I turned down one advertiser as they refused to divulge any pay rate... which I found... ahem.. odd..... and another, that made... ah.. a small mistake in the rate... and bumped it up accordingly. Am I worried.. not so much for me... I provide a service tthat is pretty damn cheap... and trusted. What I do worry about is the equivalent of the bloke who appears out of an alley... "ere... wanna, job? walk this way... " and then I get the emails from the fallout.
But ... if diggers swap news... then fair play... its not new.
I do often end up with people who have done just that... :face-approve: and then contact me to find out... how the contract can be so cunningly written that they are shafted... :0
But I thought it would be ok... is a normal first line. :face-huh:
Choices ... if I had a choice... I would trust a BAJR advert...

David - is it an open meeting on the 31st July?
I may be back in the UK on that day and would like to come along if possible......which brings me to the second question...where and what time?
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...

How did it go????
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Merlot in one hand, Cigar in the other; body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!

Yes it did... and I have to confess to be the sticking point! trying to do too many things.... I am just finishing off the minutes... which will be public... and then the draft Diggers Charter, which will look at a document that can be signed up to.
Blame me ! :I

Look forward to reading the minutes and the Charter.
