When was the last time you had a decent start time? Allright, I know if you start moaning about the hours we work, you should find another job, that’s transport for you (go on Tone, mop & bucket me) but I got my start time back from the agency today for Monday Morning. 09-15. Nearly crashed my rigid when I answered the handsfree. Sure beats the heck out of 3am / 2pm/ 3am Sunday.
09-15, that’s nearly office hours for crying out loud. Crikey, I can cope with this (kiss of death) . Hope they keep it up . Does anyone else work reasonable hours, or are we all silly o’clock in the morning brigade?
One reason I took the job driving a 7.5 tonner after been made redundant was that the hours were 8:00 to 5:00. Actually working 7:30 to 5:30 so an hours O/T everyday.
most days i start between 06.30 and 08.00 and anything as late as 09.30 on a monday and since ive been doing this job ive never had less than 10 hours off with 13 hours off being the most during the week never have to have a reduced brake of a weekend either which is great after 7years of silly oclock on fridges
It’s not just you Continental types who get the privilege of “running to suit” you know…those of us on UK work paid by the mile are on the bandwagon too!
As has been said before, our lot couldn’t care less when you start and when you finish, so long as the job gets done.

Yeah, but to do the job you have to go by the booking in times, so the office “should” have a reasonable idea what it takes from one to another, so in actual fact they do know what you’r doing and what time you should be starting to get to the drop for the booking in time .
A bloke found out I dont do daft o’clock (UK) last week, started monday, jacked thursday, I told him 3 oclock only comes once in my day, and it aint am! If this firm tries the same i’ll be out of the gate pronto.
Fair play to them that want to do it tho, its just I dont. 6 am is early enough for me, better yet 8, specially on a Monday!
Bad news is, librace, that the man who gives you the induction at walkers don,t start till 9. so you will have your talk and tour at about 9.30. This will last till about 12 noon. Then they will give you your 4 drops london. Never mind though you only need to be inducted once. all the best
First things first, welcome to the madhouse Stupeed. I can tell you know, if they do that, then they know where they can go, as I’ve got a nice little night trunk lined up at Securicore for just this occasion . Thanks for the info, it tallies with what someone else said .
. Hope they keep it up
