Got a phone call from my boss Monday morning, 5 mins after tipping Rugby,
“hello mate, have you finished tipping?”
“yes 5 mins ago”
“youd better come back to the yard, ive got some bad news, im going to have to give you all a weeks notice(there are 3 drivers including myself”)
I dont need to go into the whys and wherefores, but spent the rest of Monday emtying my Super Space Cab out, (and boy have i got, sorry, did i have, some gear in that!) didnt finish emptying it until today
So thats me out of a job then Had a deal with the salesman who sold my boss the motor and hes bought the velvet door panels and allround curtains and fridge and microwave and lightbar and 6 spotlights i had fitted he gave me £1,000 for all that, bargain for him, he reckons it will help sell the truck.
Id like to find a job i want to stay at,(as opposed to taking the first thing that comes along,) and doing what ive been doing(continental, mainly Germany) and all 100% LEGAL!but its not that easy to find Euro jobs nowadays, and, as i havent driven Right hand drive trucks for around 7 years, i really dont want to get in one. Oh well, we"ll see what tomorrow brings
So i"ll be racking that grey matter tomorrow, and generally getting wound up as the day goes on
So if anyone is looking for a left hand drive Super Space Cab Daf 4x2, 530bhp, Y reg, colour coded white, i know where there is one for sale

I see I’m not the only one who starts laughing when they’re mentioned (and the money they pay)
Sorry to here that kindle, wish i could point you in the direction of someone round our way with the type of work your seeking. But to be honest their a dieing breed, or so it would seem,as you’ve found out. But then i said this a number of years ago even in relation to dock traction work like what i used to do. with that the foreign hauliers started shipping over on a sunday night with 12-1300 liters diesel, do a weeks work then ship home friday night, legal not, but it still goes on, and theres no way a brit haulier can compete.
Anyway best of luck to you and Willy, some thing will turn up.
Sorry to hear that Kindle, i bet you are well peed of that sounded a nice truck, and a good company to work for.
Has your boss sold that nice Magnum that he only got a while back.
You got any photos of your Daf, because it sounds well smart
Simon:
Sorry to hear about your mis fortune Kindle and Willy Gofar. I have also been given notice of my redundancy, I’ll be out of a job at the end of April.
Good luck to us all, in finding the right job.
Yeah! i’ll second that Simon, good luck to you all!
