Started the new job
 
I have now started my new job as a asda home shopping driver have started whilst I an still in the north so I can be trained before I get to kent

I was out catterick and richmond yesterday just about to go and see what today brings

Finally I an once again gainfully employed and best of all I dont have to drive a coach 70 hours a week for minimum wage

Actually get some time to spend in the man cave

Now I cant wait to get to kent get settled in and get the man cave sorted out

Good luck, hope your driving standard is better than the one that I followed the other day. He did not know what lane to be in at one of counties most well known roundabouts just 2 miles from the store! or when he got off the roundabout either! Changed lanes 3 times when he did not need to make 1!

The coach industry makes sure you take no notice of it by paying rubbish wages glad to be out of it no more relying on tips to make up a wage

Note to you all always tip the coach driver he does a hard job for little money

Glad to be out that company

Did your old boss there ever square up with you over those pedal boxes ? He sounded a bit dodgy

vmax1974 9th August 2013 11:01 PM

No suprise with the dreaded GC Kev,the missus works there never in before 19:00 .

Cant get away with it with driver cards,goes straight to VOSA eventually.
And you loose your licence !

Saw an Asda delivery driver take off from traffic lights opposite entrance to Harewood a few years ago and the clever little plonker pulled away that hard the back step hit the ground,it's a wonder the rear springs did not break.

Thankfully they are not all that stupid.

we got the new style side loader vans but i will probably end up as one of them plonkers the vans have aweful automatic gearboxes that cant make up there mind what gear they want to set off in so they just sit there changing gear and not moving ever though you got your foot hard on the gas

i have not used my digi card yet the company i was working for are still using analogue discs
