He said ageny, not agency - must be something to do with his age

Many years ago I did agency for a company. They gave me a set of keys some paperwork and told to get on with it. I got back to the yard at the end of the day with a small bag that I couldn’t work out where it should have gone. The bloke walked round the back of the lorry and stood looking. I asked what was the problem. He said the normal driver took two days to do that lot normally. He offered me a job. I declined but felt good

Agency screwing up a good number for a full timer again :wink:

I got hassled by a group of drivers at a place years ago, because I was making the full timers look bad. They actually asked me to slow down. Guess my answer. Paid for 8 hours minimum, even when it took me 3 hours to do my “round.”

What a hero.

Had the prick told me it was two days work I wouldn’t have done it. I was 22 and keen at the time

Contraflow:
What a hero.

Yes a hero indeed. I was very close to swooning.

No I think he meant class

eagerbeaver:
I could forgive them if they chose a more up market carrier bag.

waitrose,[any good]

Yep. That would be much better.

And maybe treat themselves to a haircut for their birthday.

A proper one though. Not one where a proper employable driver can say " Hey agency driver! When are you going to get that haircut finished?"

I know the style you mean Contra.

The sort associated with being close with your Sister, and playing the banjo.

Anybody can race around with a Lidl carrier bag carving jobs up. It’s not hard. :unamused:

At my place, years and years of slowly but surely reducing the workload to a level where sometimes it’s a struggle to get eight hours in has resulted in what one could call “a right cushy number”.

If an agency driver came to us and tried to [zb] up all those years of hard skiving, at best, he’d be limping away with two limps. At worst, he’d be found in a hedge bottom with his Lidl carrier bag taped around his head.

What a hero.

Found someone new to try and wind up?
