    No idea who you are or what you have done, but your posts on life in general and football in particular are always worth reading, so well done.

    i have put in a lot of hard work and a lot of long long days to enable me to change the perception of the person and employee that i was.

    i got a new boss 3 years ago who reinvingerated my mojo and really bought the best of my knowledge and skills out of me, giving me the platform to perform and to face up to weaknesses, within big corporates its really easy to fall into the i dont want a career i want a job mentallity and he really helped me realise that Coca Cola has great oppotunities to build a great career and a better life for me and my family.

    i will now be working within our events team in a role that is the first of its kind and is a huge task but gives me the chance to really show that i know my stuff with regards to ops and logistics.


    all of this with no real education no good exam results and up against graduates and other great candidates i pulled it out of the bag.


    So when you see or hear of an event that coca cola sponsor or organise i wouldve been involved and responsible for its execution.


    things like the open golf, the ryder cup, Relentless festival, super bikes, etc


    so boys we have a fair amount of good things coming

    Well done, NLA.

    It's always great to hear of someone gaining success when their schooldays were not the most fruitful of their life.

    Goes to show it's never too late to turn things around ...

    Here's hoping we can all celebrate with you around 10pm tomorrow night.

    NLA now you're a high flyer can you tell me why Coca Cola stopped selling Vanilla Coke in the UK?

    This is a serious question. I even e-mailed Coca Cola but didn't get an answer.

    Well done NLA, you might know a friend of mine he's head of security for Coca-Cola? He had to sleep with the world cup (oooer!) when it toured the world before South Africa.
