I wasn’t sure where to post this as I’m not a driver wannabe…
What other jobs are there that involve working with trucks? My husband drives and I share his knowledge and passion, but I have no desire to drive them. So I wondered what else I could do within the industry?

Set up your own firm and employ your husband! Though I don’t recommend it!
That would be amazing but certainly a far fetched dream right now. And definitely don’t have a typical valeting body… Though I’d very happily give the cabs a clean!

Freight forwarder.
All you need is two telephones, tell the person on the first telephone that you want £600 to take his goods from A to B, then tell the person on the second telephone that you will give him £300 to take the goods from A to B.
Simples!
Peanuts is fine! I can’t write for toffee though!

To be a TM they want ‘experience’ now.
It’s not just the Inter CPC paperwork anymore. They won’t look at you without experience and you can’t get experience without doing the job

You need a reliable client that’ll not ■■■■ you about, and a reliable trucker that’ll not ■■■■ you about.
Getting both at the same time - that’s the hard part!
