If there paying £69 a day, how do they get around the legal minimum wage laws ?.

Judging by the antics I saw from two of their drivers running together in Belgium on Tuesday they are getting exactly the type of driver you would expect for £69 per day. :imp: :smiling_imp:

They have bought 5 new Man units,ten new fridge trailers,a new low loader,new Daf units,fish that is caught in Alaska is shipped to Holland,where Mortimers truck fish to Spain and Portugal.

Trouble is, (imo) there are too many “cab happy” drivers willing to work for Fanny Adams if they can drive a blinger. £69 a day- what do they pay for a night out? . . . a tenner? :laughing:

The drivers will only be able to afford one or the other on those wages !. Mushy peas will be right out of the question.

Maybe the drivers get their wage PLUS all the fish and chips you can eat.
