Most taxi drivers Ph drivers like a cup of coffee or tea occassionally and many go back to their office for one

I was talking today to one of 135 sweetie shop cabs drivers and spaceshuttle 1 has banned from going back to the office for a drink and thrown all the mugs out because they didn't all wash up after themselves every time

For those of you that work out of an office do you think that is a bit silly or are da management as strict at your gaff

On the face of it, it's a bit petty. Still why should the poor sod on the box have to clean up after everyone else?

Drivers in the office usually leads to rumours of favouritism and allegations of feeding anyway. Probably the right decision.

We've got the same drivers in the office drinking tea and looking over the base ops shoulders every night of the week. You won't see them on the rank but when there's a good job comes in you'll see them with their top lights switched off zooming round going for a job.
