Stuart Thomas gives us the low down on the way the the world of transport has been characterised in the media this week.
Are you bored by your job? Do you hate your boss? Well try this for size: For more than 30 years Hiroaki Kushioka endured a bizarre series of psychological tortures at the hands of his superiors. Following his decision to lift the lid on his haulage company's involvement in illegal cartels, Kushioka was isolated from all human contact during his working hours — except for one hour each day when his boss relentlessly harangued him and urged him to resign.
Clearly this was preferable, and perhaps more fun, than hiring an airy-fairy HR adviser to smooth out any dispute. The rest of the time Kushioka sat at a table in a hut killing time. If he was lucky he got to raise and lower the company flag or weed the office car park. Well, someone had to do it.
"I knew that as a person who blew the whistle and exposed my name in the public as a whistleblower my future was set in thorns," the administrator for Tonami Transportation told The Times. He is a potential winner of understatement of the year and is £70,000 richer after winning a court judgement.
Loyal (masochistic?) to the end, he never considered leaving the company as he feared not being able to get another job.
Chris Eubank knows what to do with bullies. Frustrated by a truck driver parked in a narrow street who refused to move while he drove his kids to school, the ex-boxer and HGV licence holder jumped in the truck and moved it himself.
