John in dispatch once told me an Asda driver did Morley store and back to Donny Redhouse in a shift! So that’s about 1hr 45 mins driving and a normal trailer tip in 9 hour 
someone told me…
believe me that sort of thing doesn’t go unnoticed these days.
I admit it was about 18 month ago but it did used to happen. Sometimes we would get back from our 2nd runs and they would ask us if we could do a 3rd run for them as they were desperate,it needed to go out and the driver who was down to do it hadn’t returned. It didn’t bother us as we were paid by the hour and got our night out for it plus if we worked Saturday they would give us a p–s easy shift to do 
Pimpdaddy the easy answer is it takes as long as it takes. It could be anything between 20 mins & 3 hrs. Getting on the bay is the hardest thing I found, waiting 4 hrs is not uncommon. I was given east boldon store from ADC Washington, it’s a 10-15 min drive, it took 5 hrs to get back to the depot only to be given, yes, east boldon. Both time I arrived to find 4 ASDA trucks waiting to unload, 3 from the same depot!, how’s that for TM organisation.
My green card has expired and I didn’t get much work from the agency I got it with and they lost the contract with ASDA.
Who’s the main agency who are at ASDA Washington these days? Anyone know?
Will see if I can get another one.

Dont worry about renewing it. Mibe is about 8 years old now and its never been renewed.
Saying that I never intend to do another shift for asda again.
MrMartyn1984. Try these, they called me this week to see if I was interested. They are offering 6-12months work. washingtondrivers@resource-transline.co.uk 08448754321
