If you meant - what is the pass rate for Coates? - dunno
As for the ‘fail’ then there is nothing more anyone can do (maybe an anti-nerves hypnotist) - this guy is an excellent driver - best I’ve seen for ages considering he has no driving (except car) between tests.
Ok, I have only had him for a few hours but that was enough to assess his general standard when not on ‘test’
Lets see if I can make clear how good this driver is - I would give him a fully laden 44 tonne artic now and put my baby grandaughter in the cab - not often I will say that

Well…you’re safe for the rest of this week anyhow. Seems that Leicester will be next week as I am trolling back and forth to Nottingham the remainder of this week with some local pick-ups thrown in for good measure!!
No need to keep a wary eye out just yet!
Well that’s it - I’m stuffed
I have yet another sleepless night due to stomach probs and it means letting everyone down YET AGAIN
This is getting stupid and I fully expect to be back to where I was last week by later on today.
If I was an employer then I would just call it a day if I was faced with someone like me.
So it’s off to the docs for me to see if he can find a cure but as this has happened a few times over the last 6 months and he is baffled by it, then I don’t hold out much hope 
So back to being on the sick and sitting in front of this screen again.
I suppose a few on here will have some choice negative comments but that’s to be expected - just don’t be too hard as I am feeling really, really down and am having stupid thoughts going through my head

Hopefully its just a bad stomach bug.
I don’t know if you drink at all but my mate became alchohol intollerant over a period of a few days, he never drank much anyway but anything over a pint now (which he shouldn’t do) then he is very ill.
Could be allergy to certain foods, just hope it gets better. If you think anything in particular then cut it out of your diet and see if it makes any difference.

Listen,■■■■ happens!
I have no doubts from reading your posts that you want to work!
I can only imagine how down you must feel after finally getting a job after all this time.
Chin up!
You might find your employer is more understanding than you think.Just make sure you keep calling him and update him on your illness.
Not been posting for a short time as feeling pretty low.
Just been to the Docs and he confirmed what I was already thinking.
The injustice of the Tribunal case is praying on my mind, not all the time but quite often especially when I am trying to get to sleep at night.
I can only describe it as a mixture of anger & frustration. The anger of being accused of something that I did not do along with the frustration that a tribunal cannot impose their views on the evidence, or in my case, lack of, and that a civil court action will be too costly for me to pursue.
I said to the doc that I was getting a ‘churning’ stomach when these thoughts were bothering me and he said that it is a form of stress.
Unfortunately, sleeping tablets will not help, as they will only affect the body and not the mind as well as being highly addictive.
The doc also said that as I know what the problem is, a counsellor is unlikely to be of much help.
So where do I go from here?
I reckon a small to medium win on the lotto would help — yeh, right!!
OR
I will just have to hope that time will help to come to terms with the fact that the system for justice is bias towards those that have money.

Surprised the doc said that. I would have thought some form of counselling would have helped.
What leaflets did the surgery have about sleep problems, stress and anxiety? Get hold of them
and see if they are helpfull.

FFS … you lost a job and a tribunal decision for Christ sake you didn’t lose your entire family or your life 
Get over it
Sorry ROG but I find this new age drama stuff a little hard to take.

No need to be sorry - This is not the end of the world and there are plenty with ‘REAL’ problems out there - a few of those are well documented on this site.
It was not my intention to be a ‘Drama queen’ 
but just to explain the reasons behind my particular situation - nothing more 
Anyway, all has now been said so will not be posting any more on this subject. 
Amen
@ ROG a trouble shared is a troubled halved
if it has helped YOU then stuff those that disagree,
mental stress is only now being brought out in the open
try now to start a new approach to the future, have you considered
doing courses as a instructor ----- teacher , for the new drivers CPC
They will require a few and this may just be the oppertunity
and Job for you,■■ ANY WAY ALL THE BEST,what ever you do,
Thanks to all those that have posted their support and to those many members that have done so by PMs.
It’s just a case of me being able to get my head around this now and move forward - time is needed as I have to change my normal thinking process - I tend to see in black & white, not grey.
Thanks again.
surely the thoughts and excitement of a new job will be a positive thing and improve your state of mind? Or do you think its getting back in the saddle thats making you nervous?
