Awful company, text me at 8:14am on a Friday, I instantly called up an accepted the job starting Monday, start time, location, money had all been arranged. luckily I called up before the end of day cause when i got hold of them they had given the role to someone else with out even telling me an leaving me with out work for the next week. They don't appreciate the fact we have to work to pay our bills they just see you as a money making tool for themselves.
