I take your point , but surely they are leaving themselves wide open to today’s claim culture
not really, nobody showed me how to use one but if you follow the instructions on the side of the truck/tail lift
its like teaching somebody to ■■■■ on eggs

i didn’t see this episode so don’t know what sort of taillift it was, but i’ve seen someone call out the taillift dude because he thought it was broke 
it was the under slung fold up type that needs to go down then powered down to get it to stand up so it can be pulled over, but he hadn’t been shown

It doesn’t matter what kind of training you have had unless you have a proper lead or a set of jump leads
They only have about a dozen urban trailers so a lead on each trailer would make sense with maybe a couple of spares in the office
I kept my post on the other thread but have to agree about the fuel issue. Fiona picked a trailer up in Widnes after been seconded from Newark, then went to Bolton or somewhere and ended up running home empty, then they bring a driver down from Livingston to do a couple of locals from Felixstowe to Barking 
That as well as letting one of the fat slags loose in Dicks truck
What numpty drives off after doing so called ‘checks’, which i presume would of involved her checking or at least observing a tail lift on the arse end of a trailer without a lead to power said tail lift on said arse end of said trailer??
And her reason for not having a lead to power the tail lift…“no one told me”
what the??
And an anagram of ‘NEWARK’ is…

Its not the picking up the bird i’d be concerned about where fuel is concerned but the fact their new containers are being collected by truck from Felixstowe and driven to a rail terminal in Dartford!!

Fiona?! What a babe! In the wrong job of course the silly cow.
She ain’t a “Babe.” Far from it. Her teeth are green, and as for that stupid laugh…Like someone trying to bump start a Lada!

In the world of lorry drivers Fiona is deffo a babe. 
Not in the same league as that bird in IRT of course.
Does stobbies really send out newbie drivers with no training on tailifts, shop deliverys?

I had a Lada - whatever you think about them I never had to bump start it 
Not only was there a ‘no training’ issue but surely as part of her daily checks she would have checked the tail lift was working where she would have noted no lead■■? We had to do at Wilkos! Having said that it wouldn’t have made TV then!

One who hasn’t used one before and never been told you need a separate cable to power it. It was obvious to me but thats because I am an ex mechanic and electrical engineer and would have though, where the hell does it get its power from.
Give the drive a break FFS, have you never had to seek advice on how something on a truck works or is operated? even something as simple as switching on the lights is only simple if you know where the bloody switch is.
