If any of you are good at half-arsing installs and fobbing off customers with the excuse: "Its a national fault, will be fixed by the morning" then Fujitsu in the North West is for you.

i dont take my phone into customers houses, once i finished a job then i check the phone:)

as for th managers well some are total ****wits that are only fit for doing desk jobs, its always been the same in this industry, ive only been back in it 7 months after a 5 year break.

Map are probably the biggest joke next to Kelly's

managers,,,,lol
thats a laugh they can only just about use a phone never mind install one, i have never worked for a company where the tm,s try there bully tactics in virtually every breath they take, i am just hoping that by the amount of work fujitsu have screwed up virgin dont renew their contract at the end,
since they took over i have been working longer hours for less money, they dont give a toss about their workforce, anyone considering working for this mickey mouse company,, DONT DO IT

Whats that old saying when contractors change (Same S**t different colour) the only thing that changes is the top tier management so it would be business as normal in effect

On the plus side there might be more commitment to staff and training, a new van and updated PPE - or maybe not
