Hired help

[Rossi fan]

Hi all, Thanks for the advice.

The agency has a retired paramedic, who does not want a full time role again. So long as I can go out with them, I dont see a problem.

Pete's offer is great, but firstly, I will need someone who can do 6 straight days after 4/5 weeks and any ad hoc days depending on my recovery. It is a long way for him to travel and he will also have to take time out from his own rounds. If I did not have an alternative, I would be saying yes to Pete, but whilst I am really grateful for his support, I prefer not to call on him, unless things get in a mess.

I have now spoken to Pete and he understands my position and have agreed to give him a buzz, if things dont work out as hoped.

Thanks everyone for your input.

Hi Paul,

Wish you all the best on the op! That is also very noble of you Pete - We need more people like you on this forum who will go out of their way to help other operators in their moment of need - made my day reading that mate

Thanks Ross,

The consultant has confirmed today that I should be fit enough to travel at 4 weeks, but I wont be able to bend, or lift anything, even my cat off the ground for 8 weeks after the op. I want to have it as soon as possible now, so I can be back to work for the summer holidays, but I am on a waiting list, so it may be a few weeks yet. I now have an agency driver to help. He is a retired paramedic, so I will be in good hands.

You are so right about Pete. What a wonderful gesture.

Regards,

Paul

1stly mate i wish you all the luck in the world with your op i really do..bad backs,ahhhhh..

what i want to ask you though is why you have to complicate just about everything that you do mate?i would have thought you have enough on your mind without stirring up a wasps nest.. all you had to do was to ask on here if there was any chance of any help,i am sure someone one would have been able to help out..why contact the tax man? all they will do is have a good look at you now...sod that for a lark,lol..

if you get really stuck call me mate..agencies ffs ppffftttt

Hi Dave,

I have previously worked for a Jobcentre Plus for 16 years and believe me, I know how the HMRC operate and where the lines are. I will always stay completely legal, as I have seen big ppl fall, when they have not done as thy perhaps should have. When I called I did not mention my name, but as I have nothing to hide, I may as well have done. Not many ops on here nearby me which is a pitty, but that has benefits I suppose.

Thanks fot the advice though and I appreciate your offer.

Regards,

Paul
