00:00The Japanese car company Nissan has announced plans which should mean thousands of new jobs for Britain.
00:11First of all, it was just a job, but it's become more of a job.
00:15It's become part of Southern's history, part of Nissan's history.
00:22Forty years ago, something special started here.
00:27But what's made this place isn't the buildings, it's the passion of the people who work here.
00:33The people are really great here. It's really like one team mindset.
00:37I think it's the North East spirit. We're all grafters and we all look out for each other.
00:46It doesn't matter who you are.
00:48You're part of the team. We're all in it together.
00:50Some great times, some hard times, but you've got to be resilient.
00:54For me, the teamwork and togetherness is like unmatched.
00:57Challenges that are different every day.
00:59We'll always find a solution to every problem.
01:02We just won't be beat.
01:04There's so many opportunities to progress.
01:05Nissan feels special to me because it creates innovation, reliability and a strong team culture.
01:10I'm proud of working at Nissan because it's given us the opportunity to train and learn things that I would
01:14never learn outside of the factory.
01:15From the Bluebird, we then moved on to the Primera, the Micra, Almira, Note, Qashqai, the Duke, Infinity and now
01:25Brand New Leaf.
01:28The same mindset, the same passion, the same resilience and that never say die attitude.
01:35I was there from day one and I feel proud that I was there from day one.
01:44For 40 years, generations of people have shaped this plant, our community and our story.
01:52To everyone who has been part of that journey, I want to say thank you.
02:06I wouldn't sort of change a thing.
02:08I really enjoyed my work.
02:09I really enjoyed the people I work with.
