No. Its in Warwickshire.
Bit different to site work. But the benefits outweigh the pitfalls. Also the way the industry has just dumped so many workers, now its gone sour, has left a bad taste in my mouth.
Worked solid for the last 10 years, this year, nish (long term anyway) and getting replaced by an immigrant because he was cheaper didn't help either :/ (think I burnt my bridges on that one Hee, hee! )
we first did work at the luton factory when it was privately owned,every friday each and every employee got 1 kg of cheddar gratis
its now owned by a multinational and they get SFA
seeing the scale cheese is produced at puts you off a little bit ,but the health and safety and hygiene are second to none (obviously)
i suppose most of our food is produced like this.....

Yep, its progressively tighter as you go in. Packing is cow-gown hats, where I am, processing its alcohol gel, germicidal,cow gown ,hats, caterers shoes and no ingress from anywhere without it being a double door.
As much cheese as you want to eat on the job (you have to eat a bit for quality purposes), and a staff shop that sells all produce at cost. 500g clover = 50p, frubes 50p a pack of 9.
Chubbing up a bit with the lack of exercise, but soon will sort that out
my dad once worked at the place that makes cakes for Costa coffee and left with about 30 as a gift. ate a whole cheesecake in on sitting after a few beers one night.
the young fella that worked with me packed in today,he got a mortgage and little baby and there is too much uncertainty so hes off to a big site for a bit more money and work till march
its a couple of weeks at a time here
i hear Dubai has gone skint now?
no end in sight
