So just started with Owens

Got my first shift on Monday, accompanying another driver doing work out of the steel works at Trostre. Considering my last work was with a marquee company that still ropes and sheets, and I do the same on my trailers for my summer work, would be good to just be shown what the crack is with some of the loads I’m likely to be carrying. Obviously a lot of it comes down to common sense but things like internal straps and kites are entirely new to me. Should be good though, they seem willing to be flexible with my availability as well considering I’ll be busy with my own stuff in the summer.

The fleet looks pretty tidy as well, did my assessment in a 16 plate scania, felt very spaceship like compared to either my 1999 Iveco Daily or the Leyland DAF 55 (R reg) or Mercedes Benz SK (L reg) I last drove!
