I was talking to an instructor there the recruits are in my place training, asked him about class sizes he said no set figures approx 50 due in June which includes 10 from cork next class in Jan then depending on retirements hopefully another class after that.

I thought this but SRT is done in house by DFB instructors but in Laragh. Unless it's the trinity sports centre swimming pool!

Is there no weekend posting on a bank holiday weekend? or is it tomorrow or Tuesday being the 2 next postal days?


**UPDATE** I did a bit of googling and there normally is post delivered in Cities but not rural on good Friday

Harryhoofer

Really don't give a **** about wage at moment. Sure on your days off use a bit of initiative and make some money doing other things if you have skills like that.

I take it you live at home and have little or no out goings. Dropping down to the measly wage being offered has me seriously considering my position if I get a panel offer.

Don't get me wrong it's my dream job too but im pragmatic and realistic and I have a big decision to make if I get an offer. It is all I have thought about since I applied way back in Nov. Good luck to all

Read the information booklet again. It states you must reside in Dublin. Not that it's enforced by any stretch of the imagination.

Beans on toast and Pasta with butter, back to the good aul collage days for you so pal. Average rent of 1250€ out of 1500€ approx fair play if you can make that work.

Sure it says you must have a full B licence. Which I doubt everyone has as it was never checked either.
