So that’s your first option mate is it? seriously? ffs.
I hope I never have to work with you then,… but I don’t know you personally so I won’t make a judgement.
So speaking generally…
I’ve never been a grass myself, and I [zb] hate them, lower than a snake’s todger I reckon.
The way I weigh up these situations is I ask myself if it will affect me, if the answer is no then it’s none of my [zb] business, end of.
However if it did in such as this case it may be so, I wouldn’t go for the sneaky spineless option, I would opt for the man’s way …confront him along the lines of ‘look mate you are [zb] things up for the rest of us, we aint happy, so if you continue I will take it further’’
If he continued and IF Ifelt it necessary, tell who ever could put a stop to it,…then tell the bloke in question what I had done.
Then I’d go for a ■■■■ safe in the knowledge that I was entitled to stand up to do it rather than sit down for it.
I was grassed up once by a right fanny, but when I confronted him around the back of a trailer he denied it and done everyting except [zb] himself, when he did eventually admit it he was just about in tears,…a classic spineless grass.
Topmixer11 said he’s a known pain in the arse. I’d have chinned him the 1st time he started acting like a cowboy, so he’d be well aware of what would happen if I caught wind of it. As he seems to have been taking liberties for a while, I would have no qualms in grassing him up. I’d tell him it was me that done it too. I’m not going to allow some half-wit knob-jockey jeopardise the jobs of everyone at my place of work. If the management did nothing about it, I’d go to the owners. I have absolutely no fear at being labeled a clype when I know my actions were righteous.

Yeh ok mate, but warning him and/or taking action yourself first, is a lot different to what you said in your first post isn’t it? Which was …Initial reaction, First option …quote '‘Grass him up’, which prompted me to comment
OP, Have a word with him about it, get a couple of your colleagues to back you up if need be. He is messing with your job here because if DVSA find out about and if they think the company accepts it, they will go to the TC and have the o-licence yanked. Thats all of you out of a job.
As for your boss, if he is willing to put three jobs on the line later to save a couple of uncomfortable questions now, find another job. If the manager brushes this one under the carpet it isn’t only the driver who could get in trouble. He will lose his job for covering up a breach of the regulations and if DVSA find out about it, the O-licence holder could, potentially, be barred from holding an o-licence. That possibly three out of work for one mans greed.
Also how will the time sheet people no spot the problem? Surely booking 18 hours in a 24 hour period when we can only do 15 would constitute a glaring alarm? If not the idiot has not only run bent but robbed himself of three hours pay.
