I’m doing it to a extent , but did have a walk down & gaze
Through window of motorbike shop , then
Wander & gaze at the cars , stopped & got
A Costa , kitcat on walk back home from garage , 2 hrs

WaggerWagger888:
reading through this thread it struck me the number of drivers that live on their own. Probably spent 60 hours on their own tramping around the country or Europe. When I was working, 2 nights a week away was all I was prepared to do and there was always another driver willing to change runs but those type of jobs seem in short supply now. You’ve got to be a bit of a loner to prefer that kind of life and it seems plenty like it that way, but I always liked my home comforts. There wasn’t much call for 24/7 delivery in those days so we was able to work mon. to fri. and occasional sat., the hairs on the back of my neck stand up when I read some of the shift patterns that are worked.
I’d love 2 nights out a week would be perfect for me but like you say near nobody has such an arrangement and as such I have to stick with regular days.
Too many companies are all about ‘sweating the asset’ and keeping the wheels turning 24/7.
