00:00My name is Ted and my background is construction. I'm a joiner by trade, although I'm better known as a multi-trader because I dip my fingers in most trades within construction.
00:11I retired at the beginning of lockdown simply because I was a maintenance joiner at that time and people didn't want me in their homes.
00:20Then I began to get bored and I came across TIB simply by chance and I was interested in helping out in schools simply because that is my nature. I like helping people.
00:35The beauty of working for TIB is that schools always need somebody who's got an ability to do more than just clean the bins or clean the floors.
00:45Flexible work was a priority in as much as that I do other things. I have grandchildren. I do the school run. I walk the dog.
00:56Appreciation. I find it totally rewarding that I am appreciated.
01:02One day I was emptying a bin and there was a bar of chocolate with a note in it saying thank you so much for the work that you do.
01:09You know, so it's little bits and pieces like that that I never really got in my work as a joiner.
01:16TIB is a great company to work for. I would wholeheartedly recommend it.
01:21They're friendly. They're efficient. It's everything that you would want from a company.
