Driver 'shortage': new report, same old story

Perhaps a weekly working limit for Drivers of either a four shift week OR limiting the number of shifts worked to a maximum of four, OR preventing any job working over 48 hours over any number of shifts… Now funny thing with this latter one, - it seems a bit daft that a full timer gets their hours “capped”, but an agency bod can work more than 10 hours on nights, can work 5 or 6 shifts over 12 hours per week, and an agency can have well over an hour per shift knocked off for “Meal Breaks”…

FORGET “Wages” - Assume the “race to the bottom” will be WON in due course by the firms, with all of us getting near minimum wages in the end… Concentrate on making your job “better than Dante’s 9th Level of Hell” at very least…

A low paid job that is good is better than a low paid job that is bad. :bulb:
