Has drivers opinion of them selves and their professionalism

Just a thought!
I for one think it has and the reason I think is this recession,it’s been five years now .
Just another thought for discussion no pun intended.
Every one you seem to talk to is ■■■■■■ off!
Maybe it’s just me if it is please delete this!

Sorry the box was,nt long enough,been damaged was the end of the headline.

Thanks for that, been sitting here for the last ten minutes trying to work that headline out …

I’m happy as larry.

As you were.

Hope I didn’t confuse you to much ,did you get it in the end

Well switch with the money your on ,I would,nt be me man

Im happy doing my job, wouldnt do it if i wasnt, although i do get my off days from time to time, normally when im given totally unrealistic book in times and end up being late, feel as if ive failed if i dont get there in time even through no fault of my own.

Fair enough maybe it is just me.

Oh look another know all, surprise surprise

How am I a know all?
I know what I know and that’s all .

You implied you know what I get paid at the end of the week, which no one but me and my bank know. And I’m perfectly happy with my wage thank you no matter what you think it is.

Fair enough ,my point was I think drivers and owner operators should be getting more .
Because they are worth it,do you not think?

I know a bloke called Larry, he’s a right miserable git :open_mouth:

Actually not really, well for drivers anyway. This the pay is fairly ok. We’d all like more but it’s not brain surgery. Anyone could have a licence in two weeks. I’ve friends earning a fair bit less than me that spent years doing degrees. So no, I don’t agree with the sweeping ‘drivers should be getting more’ statement. Some are underpaid, some earn a lot for what they do and the rest of us are in the middle.

Couldn’t agree more. Also diesel should be about £3 a litre, because its worth every penny, without it you can’t get around :laughing:

Well I think that the end of this .

If you don’t like people voicing their differing opinions then why on earth post on a forum. As for what I get for driving across Europe? Well I’ve already told you I’m happy with my wage, and also told you you don’t know what goes into my bank each week. I’m happy I get a fair wage for what I do. Sorry, but that’s how it is for me.
