Hi,
No day release, it is in house training that he had to do every 6 weeks for a week, with extra training ( scaffold appreciation etc), the thing is as a trainee he gets around £22k and a company car so it's quite a good job especially for around here though he does travel over 90 mins to get to various sites.. He doesn't want to lose this job but after asking countless times for the things he needed it wasn't until he "stamped" his feet that all of a sudden there was a problem with him!..
We shall see how this plays out over the coming days
