Freebies

Do any of you get any free stuff, when tipping or loading? I got some free Armor All cleaning stuff this week when I was loading, and a few weeks ago, i got given a box of incense and smelly stuff after I had tipped. Was hoping for one of the bluray dvd players, I was tipping but didnt get one :frowning:

Not often, but I did get given a bottle of Sambouca when I loaded in Rome this year as an inducement to get me to push a pallet trolley around the trailer for 15 minutes. Which I thought was a fair deal.

i used to be offered breakfast and lunch and as much coffee or tea as we wanted in my old job, shame the job itself and the boss are total cack.

I get a free cab search :laughing:

I once spent 2 weeks working on the bins, commercial premises. Never had so many freebies.

I got 4 boxes of cereal bar type biscuits last week from a customer in the north east.Each box contained about 6 packs inside,which then contained 6 bars per pack.(Do the maths.)

And the reason I got them,was because the loader had put 4 boxes on too many,and couldn’t be bothered to take them off,so he said just keep them!!! :smiley: :smiley:
