dozy:
Iâm off this week , so told boss to make sure my truck is spotless when I start back and also stuck a note to steering wheels telling whoever uses it too make sure itâs left spotless and too leave my football flags / scarfs / stickers where they are
So you think someone else should put up with your tat, and work around it whilst driving the firms truck?
Iâd say you shouldnât be surprised to find it all in a box somewhere when you come back mate.
Spoken like a true limper
Well Iâve got images of dozyâs truck looking like one of those that youâd be embarrassed to drive, stuffed to the gunnels with cuddly toys and other assorted bolloxâŚ
He will be taking all his cuddly teddies to court with him just in case
So after having 2 trucks given to me that you wouldnât put a dog in I have refused to work in any of them that has been smoked In. Am I pushing my luck as a newbie

So do I, itâs NO.!
It does no harm to let somebody know who is taking the â â â â , that you will not be â â â â ed aboutâŚas long as it is done politely.
If the lad is a good man for his boss, he will earn respect and show he will not be mugged off.
The other alternative is to make a doormat out of yourself.

Well spoke to them they said do run and we speak to u tomorrow so that me gone so just been for a interview and got another job lined up

Well I did not see that coming!
It was the attitude towards my health and basically because I drove them before I should put up with it. Why should I
Well you have driven them before, so did you state your objections back then?
And they have said theyâll talk about it tomorrow, so why is that unreasonable if youâve only raised this issue this time?

I have read all the posts on this one, yet no smokers commented !! let me be the first: I do smoke in my truck, cos i am the only one who drives it, so therefore perfectly legal. On then other hand i do respect those who do not smoke, and therefore open a window, well i used to when i worked for another company. However i did use someone elses truck, and it stunk to high heaven, the bedding needed throwing out, and i nearly did that, the smell of B.O. left a lot to be desired, he didnt smoke, but was one of those drivers who wore his company polo shirt like it was his only piece of clothing, beans, tomatoes, egg etc down the front, i didnt report him, but left him an undesireable noteâŚthat led me to a disciplinary hearing and sacked instantlyâŚthey didnt like my swearing ( in case a member of the office staff saw it ) one word in particular which should never be said in front of a woman apparently ( which i would never do, nor have done ) But the issue of the B.O. they said they couldnt do anything about, even asked me how to approach it, to which i said, give him a shower gel, and a few bars of carbolic soap as a hint, along with some cleaning agents for the cabâŚ
Tbh, since the introduction of the No Smoking rules in the workplace, or a public place, more people are shouting from the rooftopsâŚwhereas before the rules, everyone just got on with it, instead of the namby pamby moans and groans we have todayâŚsorry to say, but they wouldnt have lasted in the old daysâŚevery motor on the fleet was a â â â â â â â â â â dont think cleaning materials had been invented, or the bosses and drivers used it as a workhorse, a means to earn money, and not to be treated like a museumâŚjust my thoughts you understand, and not a general moan about everyone.

If people want to smoke in the can it doesnât bother me open a window put a air freshener in give i wipe round before leaving. But when the cab is that bad the whole interior is yellow and you smell like your a heavy smoker that is unacceptable
I smoke, so do all the drivers at where I work except the boss himself, if I have to drive his unit (the spare) I smoke outside the cab⌠Nothing has ever been said to usâ just common decency and respect for his personal spaceâŚ
