I havent read all the thread but from what I have seen I wouldn’t want to work for them.
Gary the planner/manager whatever is a nob
That bird has worked there for 2 years but doesnt have to stay out like the rest of em? Bet she gets mon to fri to and she is annoying and plays the women card well.
The spotters are real sad and I mean SAD [zb]! But each to their own.
Other then that, it is so dramatised its ridiculous it is nothing like real life for a tramper on general.
Verdict is crap program. But I will watch it anyway as I like a moan
no idea how long shes worked there but in all that time shes been on NIGHTS,she has only just moved onto days[as have a few night shift drivers[blokes],so to say she got prefferential treatment isnt true.
our depot has 200 ish drivers so im told and out of those id say there is only 10% at best who tramp[they asked for it.
the rest of us which includes me,fiona and the other 90% only do nights out if we run out of hours,driving time ,so again i fail to see how she gets preferential treatment,if she runs out of hours she spends the night in the truck like the rest of us.
mon-fri,not sure what she works,but they were asking for tues-sat driver to swap over to mon-fri,so if she was tues-sat she could put in for it like the rest,again i cant see she gets preferental treatment.
drivers are drivers,they always think someones getting something there not,
it may seem im standing up for here but im just dealing in facts, or what i see, other than shes aloud to wear PINK hair bands,laces and im not i think we all get treated pretty much the same
are you getting confused with general,there mainly trampers a.f.a.i.k,odd day night driver.
chillside which fiona works on is 90%+ ,day /night drivers,with a sprinkling of trampers
Fair enough, when I looked on website recently it was asking for trampers with weekends thrown in so I assumed as you had told me before you all have to work a weekend.

99% of shifts include w/ends,there are still some mon-fri drivers but not many,my point is if shes on that its because theyve asked if any drivers want it,so were all in with a shout if we work the shift they want drivers from,ive no idea what shift she works but if they have just given her mon-fri for her celebrity status therd be bedlam,so if she does work mon-fri its because shes applied for it and got it

To be fair the day driver seemed a decent guy just going in getting on with the job not trying to make himself out to be some kind of hero.
ive come across a few stobart drivers on the walking floors they come in to our yard to load woodchip for belguim most are decent guys but theres is one who could be moes brother but ive met loads of good guys in the game but plenty o knobheads too.
Is your yard in barking? I was on the floors for Stobarts. Your yard is a right p-i-t-a mate
All the drivers were ok but its just sooooo busy and 1 bridge for inward and outbound traffic dont help
I look a bit like mo with my bald head and glasses but i aint nowt like him in character i can assure you!
