Worse than all that, though, it had to be in god forsaken (near) Ipswich.

I was cursing him last month, having to sit through a (very, very) condensed training course provided by his company...   ...and because it was so condensed, had to spend my own time going through the material (6 x A4 sized ring bound books, over an inch thick each).

Apart from our in house fire safety videos, the acting in which makes Eldorado look good, most of our training is pretty good... got a three day telehandler course next month which will be fun

Refresher is quick and dirty, but intial course is an external three day job
