WHILE FRIENDS of mine risk life and limb attempting to make deliveries, while trying to avoid a***holes on all (and in all) forms of transport, it makes them think, is it all worthwhile?
I spoke to a driver who was “on the bones of his a***” always complaining about the cost of diesel, then out of the blue two brand new units appeared at his firm covered in the Queen. The cost of the spray job alone was £20k. How can this man complain now? He will be haunted every mile.
Perhaps one day someone, somewhere will realise that drivers are the backbone of the country – not the politicians, drivers are needed more than them. Drivers drive and are productive, politicians are red tape and bull**** merchants and nothing but a hinderance.
Well bang goes the knighthood, and no card from Her Majesty at Christmas time, but who is bothered?
