Starting at 10am this morning on Channel 4, undercover boss features the boss of American truck manufacturer Mack. Just posting as a few might be interested if your at home like me twiddling your thumbs !
Watching thanks
Better than Jeremy Vile
All i can say in my opinion , is what a great boss to have he comes across in the prog as very down to earth and understanding , and the workers that were featured also give a very good impression of the company , if i was a owner of a fleet in the usa i would def contemplate buying mack trucks , it was a very good advertisement for the firm , and i guess they will get quite a few orders from people seeing that prog,a bit off topic but i just always wonder how does one work there way up to becoming the president of a company ?
Enjoyed that, seems like a decent bloke that “Roger”
repeat
Watched it…Was a bit lovey dovey for me.
I think 90% of TV is repeats mate, on the odd occasion it means I get to see something I havn’t seen before tho
Regarding becoming the head of a multi-billion dollar company-
I would have thought that “Lorry Driver” is perhaps not the ideal place to start?
As to the chap appearing to be a “good sort”, I’m sure he can afford to be- he has hundreds, if not thousands of people lower down in the hierarchy whom he pays very well to do the “nasty” bits.
anyone else spot why Macks have the Bulldog symbol

Named by WW1 British soldiers 'cos the trucks looked like bulldogs and would just carry on working
