Shortest time you've stayed at a new job?

[Pat Vegas]

and what was the reason for your quick departure?

[PSRB]

and what was the reason for your quick departure?

5 months and 3 of those on paid leave

Essentially, the job I was doing was not "as advertised", would never have taken the role if I'd known what I did after 2 weeks working for them

[Sir C]

and what was the reason for your quick departure?

Three days. Cleaning a Marmite factory. You have no idea what decades of Marmite production leaves on the walls of a Victorian factory building. By Wednesday I just couldn't hack it any more

Is it not just Marmite?

[Sir C]

Is it not just Marmite?

Decades of layers of super-heated Marmite steam solidified into a solid gloop (yes, a solid gloop, get your head around that, if you can) of such stickiness and malodorousness as to make the strongest of men blanch. We tied scrapers, then chisels, then pressure washers, then steam cleaners, and nothing made any impact on it except to anger it and cause it to release wave after wave of noxious Marmite gasses.

Each day was like a Sisyphean lifetime.

Could you not have licked the walls?

Could you not have licked the walls?

The whole experience was gopping, I tell you. Put me off Marmite for a week or so.

Where was the factory?

[Sir C]

Where was the factory?

Erith, Crayford sort of area.

Erith, Crayford sort of area.

I shall be going to Erith next weekend to do part of the Green Chain walk from Erith to Falcoln Wood via Lessness Abbey Wood and Bostall wood. I shall have a look out an old factory building with chaps still trying to clean solidified gloop from the walls.

Meanwhile, your post has made page one of a google search for 'Marmite Factory Crayford'.
