Was working for driver hire today, I picked up a truck from near Selby to deliver timber flooring to a building site in Salford, got to the site at 9:05am. Pulled the truck onto the site to be tipped and the crane breaks down, they say another is on the way so I sit down and put my feet up after calling the transport office. 2pm and I am informed that the replacement crane has broken down on route and I am to wait for crane number 3. Crane number 3 arrive’s on site at 3.45pm, get tipped, backing off site and the truck sink’s due to dodgy ■■■■■■■■ on the ground and I have to be pulled out (luckily no damage to truck). Got back to selby at 6:15pm, can thing’s get any worst?
