Hi :slight_smile: Im another female wannabe trucker
Interesting to see some others bailing out from the NHS (or ex NHS) on here :smiley: its circling the drain at the moment I fear :neutral_face:
Im in my early 50s, and a soon-to-be-ex Paramedic who’s sick to death of it all for all the same reasons.
Im just waiting for my Provisional to come back and then Im off to do my theory/training etc
Cant wait!

welcome Mrs Mac where are you? I am in Surrey.

Today I was REALLY fed up at work, I called up an agency to ask for work, they cannot understand why I want to leave a job which pays 3 times more than the average c+e driver. I said I was FED UP to push paper forms around and be given more to do but to be expected to do it twice as well as before when I had less to do. Fed up of being told off, being told I need to do it better but here’s a pay cut for your efforts anyway, and it’s ‘always our fault’, never the fault of not having enough equipment or staff, never the fault they never give me a break on a 13hr shift, at least as a truck driver I have a tacho and I HAVE TO have breaks!

(rant over!!!)

3 times more than c+e drivers? any vacancies? :wink:

Hahahaha it took me 3 years of Uni and 7 of hard work to get to this salary.
Plenty of vacancies if you’re willing to do it [emoji12]
