What?..That’s nothing.
Have you never heard of Carryfast??
He knows everything there is to know about…well everything. :neutral_face:

I think their is a difference between being clever and having qualifications, I know some really clever people who left school without a single qualifications and some with loads of qualifications that you think shouldn’t be let out on their own.

I did work with a lad who had a degree in Geography, good lad and good driver, his father ran his own trucks and this lad got the truck bug at an early age, so nothing was going to stop him driving one, until he found out he hated doing haulage work. :laughing:

Knew a guy years ago spoke read and could write 13 languages fluently, he could read say a French newspaper and translate it into German Spanish etc without thinking about the same with writing give him directions in Russian and he’d write them down in what ever. he was amazing.

He was self taught by tapes and picking up papers from places he was in but he did say was wherever he was he would try to talk in the language of that country.

Start a thread about it and let’s see.
At least it will keep them occupied for about a week. :smiley:

I’m a plumber by trade, or at least I was

When I started doing continental work in the 1980s I met a fair few schoolteachers who used to drive trucks in the six-week Summer school holidays, partly for the money but mostly for the thrill of doing a long European journey.

I also once knew somebody who gave up teaching as a professor at Oxford University to be a minicab controller.
