Going shopping

Tesco owns around 3000 tractor units and 7000 trailers, they probably need a few subbies

IDIOT WHYCHAVON plated 8 seater that dropped his passengers off at BHX then blocked the exit to the car park by getting stuck at the barrier having NOT paid for his ticket first

It's bad enough with all the "alterations" going on but that jammed it right up

Fooking drivers who get a puncture and say that they don't know how to change a wheel. Assole used to be a driving instructor. So I have had to send another driver out to do it for him meaning 2 cars off the road at the moment. Pi55ed off or what!!!

Grandad,

Note the wording "used to be a driving instructor",did he have to pack it in when the ability to change a wheel was to become part of the test,perhaps this should be part of the criteria that has to be met before a license is granted.

I don't have a spare wheel so will I be exempt from this test?

Two last night;
Local Asian shop pickup for 'customer'. When I get there the shopkeepers are all outside, some nutter starts walking to the car ranting and waving his hands about, by the look on the shopkeepers faces you could tell something wasn't right. Just as I'm about to drive off (I'm having none of it) a police van swerves in front of me and a police car pulls up behind, cops leap on the bloke and get him on the ground. Turns out he'd been in the shop drunk and causing aggro. They just wanted rid, so what did they do, called a bloody taxi for him !

Then I gets a house pickup, all in darkness. Then a drunk woman comes out of next door shouting he'll be 'effing out in a minute. Eventually a bloke comes out who I recognised as one the company's banned for threatening to kill drivers, he's a complete headcase, ex-boxer and bouncer whos had too many blows to the head. The only time I ever got him I didn't think I was going home that night, worst experience in 15 years of driving, the only time I've ever feared for my life. Informed the office and it turns out the house he came out of is on the company blacklist, as is every address we know he travels to and from. Later I found out he tried ordering from 3 other addresses on the same street, luckily the firm refused to send any cars.

we have a local nutjob called Mandy who i have tried to ban about 4 times but then a couple of the night drivers started picking her up again and on my day off the drivers answering the phone started taking her on she used to persuade shops, passers by etc to phone a taxi for her in order to try and trick me into accepting bookings from her but I usually twigged think shes finally given up trying
