Training a Manager: Why me?

I was chosen earlier this week from a cast of a lot of company herberts by a newly appointed, often nasty & unpopular probationer (ex Transport clerk) TM to take her out on a series of runs ‘to clue her up’ on some of our typical routes.

I told her of my discomfort at having someone/anyone as a tag-along companion - which she dismissed immediately. Meanwhile, after a genuine & rational appeal to him I suspect my ‘Line Manager’ may be encouraged to turn a blind-eye and may go Teflon to my concerns of, eg, reduced safety awareness, diverted focus, etc, blah :sunglasses:

That was my Plan A
Plan B has been to invite the Union onto binning it
Plan C is expecting her not to have steelies (No!)
Plan D is her not being given a specific company Transport Training Safety Brief beforehand (No!)
Plan E is me chucking a sickie to avoid it :neutral_face:
Plan F is taking my woman’s objections into consideration - due to the individual using her wily, ‘womanly’ bleached-blond & skinny/slim and greasy, senior ■■■■-licking charm to get her sickeningly ambitious way (did it get her the appointment at the cost to her competent but unselected colleagues?)

FFS, the company has a Transport Training Team - so why is my alleged ‘experience’ any better - and why can’t they structure her some training and deliver it too?

I’m only averagely hung (I’m guessing), I scratch a lot and often have a foul rear-end with a BBC Radio Four wireless taste to pass the miles - so they surely can’t be her reasons :open_mouth:

Suggestions on how to restore me to my personal comforts & be left-alone are most welcome, please

Ask for more money to do it? Then at least you are gaining something

‘…Ask for more money to do it? Then at least you are gaining something…’

Cheers, although I’m keen not to prostitute myself - not least into corporate control to wear a hat that I don’t want to fit

As soon as she jumps in the cab with you, belch and ■■■■ like a good en and say," I knew I shouldn’t have had that mutton vindaloo last night, mi guts are doing sumersaults here" maybe she’ll then have second thoughts and think a day sat in a nice comfy chair in the office would be better than a day sat about a foot away from a hairy arsed trucker :grimacing:

You’re obviously the ‘chosen one’ so make hay while the sun shines and look at it as a window of opportunity! Get some serious arse licking done there as is required apparently these days - crack on!! :wink::slight_smile:

Why don’t you take the high road & welcome her on board the good ship Happy Keith with a smile & a cheeky wink, you never know you may be balls deep by lunch time…

Personally I think its a great idea to get office bods that have never been in a wagon out on the road to see just WTF we have to deal with, even have the routes picked out :smiling_imp: .

Aberdeen; 4hr.15 (on a good day), one hit, bladder buster, see how the ladies that insist on us doing it in one hit cope with that one.

Millom; nice run, a wee bit tight in places with suicidal cars and bikers and a collection at Skem for afters.

Chorley; early hours Saturday morning through middle of town dodging the drunks/druggies at kicking out time.

Just think by the end of the week you’ll either be her favouritest driver ever or she’ll hate you with a passion :laughing: but at least she’ll have a better of idea things from the drivers’ seat

Hating her is using up a lot of your energy already. Acting professionally & giving her a good day out will at least give you leverage for the future & could lead to a short time gain of a casual BJ? :sunglasses:
Negative energy will not only frazzle her permanently it will impact on your health as well (A.Doctor)

Alternatively you could have a full session in the local brothel ( Claim it on expences) before the tour & things will go as smooth as butter?

So as your Title to this thread says

Training a Manager: Why me?

your not Training her your just showing her the ropes …
If you were actually TRAINING her and your not an actual qualified trainer and something went wrong you could find yourself :wink: :wink:
Mind if she’s out on a jolly you wanna try and get her to pay for lunch :wink: :wink:

I think its a good idea, if only more office staff had some experience to help them in their job. I dare say it’ll be a one off once you’ve bored her to tears blaming everything on the EU. I reckon she’ll be a paid up UKIP member before the day is out, or more pro Europe than ever. Cant see there being any middle ground.

Just get on with it and do everyting by the book, she might turn out to be ok. If she is fit she can come out with me instead!

Crack on and get on with it you miserable sod :smiley:

Lucky you!!!
I got a ride along today, who thought after looking at my
Run what an easy day.

Sat on our 45. Phone goes and he answers it to be asked
to divert to trafford park for a collect, no probs I say.
He looks at me and asked if I can drop him at yard first. Which is 10 mins away.

If you want personal comforts and to be left alone then don’t be an employee. Go self employed.

Get her on the bunk and slip her a length
