women drivers

lol just getting the courage up to get into the crappy ■■■ bunk that scania provide!.. :slight_smile:

I know a lot of drivers slate women drivers but to be fair i find them a lot more professional about there job and get on with it instead of moaning.

After xmas we are taking on another truck and as a result another driver and i wouldnt be put off if i got a lady working for me ? some are actually better and a lot more well mannered than some of the blokes ive interviewed.

Hi All,

Still out and about trucking now and again!! give us a wave when you see me ! :smiley:

buck rogers:
i passed one of their female drivers at grantshouse,she was going northbound about tea time saturday.it might be her.she must be okay,cos i didnt recoil in shock,as i do with some!!

Mmmmmmm and most of the male drivers leave a lot to the imagination too, there are a lot of BOB FOC,s about Body of Baywatch,Face of Crimewatch… :smiley:

That is very true! I have yet to come across eye candy :laughing:

GENERAL DRIVING TIPS BEFORE STARTING LGV C TRAINING (Link)

If you click the link in my signature or these truck pics

it will lead you to an index where you can access a lot more info which may be of use to you :smiley: :smiley:
BEFORE you book your training, READ THIS… - I suggest the trainee-to-be visits the training school, meets the head person(s) and has a quick look at the truck BEFORE parting with any money.

Recommended LGV training schools

THE DRIVER SHORTAGE IS AN ADVERTISING MYTH - Generally more drivers than jobs in the UK
Newbies - Jobs, Agencies & EXPERIENCE & Is this country short of drivers ?

FAQ forum for info on Posting Pics, Driver CPC, Getting 1st LGV Licence and much more…

I ASSUME that your company is sorting out your training and that you will have a job sorted for after it :question:

I did not know Trucknet is getting money for adverts to keep it running…
I rather wish not to see it

cough, er, hello, cough :grimacing:

dagenham is very vogue right now :wink:

as a side note, one of the truck mags has a small article on a nice young lady owner driver with her bonnetted scania in the forest.

NinaSimone:
That is very true! I have yet to come across eye candy :laughing:

Thats not very nice, i dont start my Job till next Mth. :smiley:

Late 20’s I suppose…

The formula for working out the minimum acceptable age for a girlfriend is “Half your age, plus seven”.

And she would fail that test. Although that of course would be her problem, not mine!

I have only just come across this post but the OP reminded me of the Simpsons and the angry groundsman. Now I am not sure if it is Rcos or Kirsty that is more akin to him :stuck_out_tongue:

Harry. Your formula fails in septuagenarius. Then the youngster is just accused of being after your money. :smiley:

Harry Monk:
There is a girl out there driving a Rock ‘n’ Roll truck- for StageTruck- who I am a bit sweet on… If only I was 20 years younger!

blonde thing from Hull?

I dont slate women in fact i usually like them and i’m married to one so that proves it :smiley: but i have been accused of sexism in the past i know its not true but what would you have done.
I was an owner driver who was having a brilliant week and i arrived at Barry Island for a load of bananas for Glasgow and after that to load hanging beef from Belfast for Rungis.
About 50 vehicles in front of me but they were loading fairly rapid, i booked off and waited and it was touch and go but i was lucky and i was in the last 5 to be loaded,great, i knew i could tip as soon as i got there because they wanted to get the fruit into the kilns.
Then problems, tap on the door and a foreman docker and an office worker stood there “you will have to pull out drive and we will load you first thing in the morning” Why ?, " because there is a lady driver in the queue behind you and she can’t stay on the docks overnight because there are no facilities for women" are there any for men ? "well no but you know drive " "yes i do ff------g know i know i am getting loaded and if there is a dozen women behind i dont care i am still getting ff------g loaded if your’e that bothered load her after me ", oh ok you are a sexist are you,"no i’m not i’m a haulier trying to earn a bloody living and i’m not letting you stop me so go away.
The language was a lot more industrial then that but was i wrong, is that being sexist i dont think so.

As a man I feel inclined to shout “get your ■■■■ out!” … Realising this could be interpreted as sexist I am willing to get mine out first…

This is for Spanky.

edit’ this is a joke, I don’t mean to offend any guys not willing to get theirs out.

VERY DISSAPOINTED…Saw the attachment icon and I thought there was going to be some female photographic evidence to back it up . :cry:

Nope dont think you were being sexiest at all if no facilities for either then tough she would have been safe staying on the dock poss safer that a layby

We have a number of lady drivers at my place I would like there to be many more, They don’t drive like A holes they don’t wreck the trucks and they don’t leave the cabs smelling like a dog kennel.

There are countless woman drivers over here, sadly most of them look like Robbie Coltrane :laughing:

There used to be a blonde that worked in morrisons, i couldn’t decide if she was pretty or ugly, so i opted for pretty ugly :exclamation:
