What qualfiies anyone for holding a HGV licence? We aren’t some special breed apart, with exemplary moral standards. We are the same overweight, under motivated, barely literate, selfish muppets as anyone else. We attended a one week course. A rubber stamp. A HGV driver, welcome to the fold. A consumer, a tax revune producer. An all round good egg.
Kerbdog:
I’ve never taken an illegal drug in my life. Haven’t had the greatest life but I’ve never been that sad to have had to take an illegal drug. Why are they illegal ? If the government could make millions in tax from them then why are they are still illegal ?
I envy you, and then pity you at the same time. Ignorance is bliss as they say.
Drugs are bad mmmkay? Alcohol is the most harmful by a proven scientific margin, in all aspects of society. Yet it happily remains, because the government make so much filthy money from it. Open your mind a bit, and realise that everything comes down to money in the end, and nothing else.
Like everything else that is so often posted on this forum… how about you mind your own business?
To each, his own.
As long as you cause no injury, harm or loss to another, then you should be free to live your life as you please.
Time to bag up this “professional driver” nonsense, and put it away in the doggie refuse bin where it belongs. It doesnt (and never will) say “professional driver” on my licence, and there is a good reason for that.
have a big problem with drug dealers, i hate them and their kind more than i can put into words, and have nothing but contempt for those weedy useless pratts who abuse their minds and bodies by using the crap.
In my ideal society any convicted drug dealer would be put against a wall and shot, end of problem, next one to take their place same result, even the thickest drug pusher would get the message that it was likely to be a short career with no pension.
There was once a regime, with a similar outlook towards anything that differed from their own viewpoint. It was called the Third Reich, and it didn’t end so well.
It’s understandable, for those who have worked their entire lives with a belief in a system. It can get very scary when within one single night, maybe a matter of hours, that belief system has been blown completely away. People are often most fearful of what they understand the least.
I would rather all drivers had an experience, and an ability to see the world for the farce that it is, instead of clinging onto this idea of an all powerful, all knowing government, and that if they put in their time, they will be justly rewarded.
Making your own mind up about things, is the beginning of the only real freedom anyone really has, so why would you throw it away based on what the governement tells you to do?
