Every firm has them mate, I flipped my lid a few weeks ago with the dayshift office staff... I asked them, "why certain drivers aren't on the rank but they're always seen with passengers on board?" They couldn't answer it.

A few days later I went into the office and asked the lad who was on nights to have a look at his earnings, he worked less hours than me by a long way and took £200 more over the week.

Im hacked off cos theres 4 or 5 in the good job queue before they even get booked on the system, then base ops looking after their PARTNERS (drivers) even before the "grace and favour" inner circle (chocs for the ops) section

im gradually warming to the rank, plus there are 2 other circuits in town

as I said to another ex-base driver (jumped ship), us, the rank and file represent the company and carry signage/hand out cards on the short jobs (bulk of jobs) then the vultures get the meat like a Torquay return (2 x £250 jobs) for a customer I see now and then when I take em shopping (£4)

I have no problems, I'm even allowed to take my own bookings, I usually find the ones that moan are the ones who do not work, if your wheels are turning then your earning. Hmm unless your in Bolsover then you would be out of pocket.
