Also, what’s “gross dismissal”?

It’s a bit like constructive dismissal, but without the constructive element and with a side order of grossness.

I saw mark dixon smoking a roll up in is truck.He was park up in the services on A19.

Won’t sack him. He’s eye candy for the ladies (apparently■■?)

I’ve seen him out on the road a time or two. Wagon is always absolutely filthy, by far the dirtiest on their fleet I’ve ever seen. Funny how it’s not like that when there’s a tv camera pointing at it.

I think he’s a first class knob, if I’m honest.

bet mine is dirtier.

Funny that Mark Dixhead gets a mention. I’m in coke at wakey, he was in front at the gate. As said, truck was filthy, and he had his midlift down with an empty. As for the attack on me about sacking people, yes they should sack drivers for any law breaking, provided it isn’t instigated by the company. Why did he not just get out if on a break? They’re paid by the hour. The smokers at maritime love the rule. Every second services for a chuff. They get paid to smoke. Shouldn’t be doing it in the lorry, end of

I wasn’t attacking you Jay, I have no problem with you whatsoever. It just so happens that on this subject you and I disagree. It aint the end of the world though dude. I still love you and I’ll still respect you in the morning! :smiley:

My mum warned me about blokes like u :laughing:

I used to smoke in the lorry until I got fined by a local council after one of them seen me. Now I just keep my ■■■■ in the side locker so I can’t smoke when I’m driving. Cut down on them a lot since so it worked out well.

I just hate people smoking in cabs the only exceptions are owner drivers and those who drive same lorry everyday, i hate the ash all over the clocks and the smell, it sticks to your hands, clothes, not to mention that second/third hand smoke is just as bad for your health as smoking.

Can anyone enlighten me on what pleasure do you get from smoking? all the answers I’ve heard don’t make any sense.

Dumb question, I could ask what pleasure anyone gets from a football match, climbing a mountain, driving a fast car,…ect, it’s each to their own.

Nicotine is an anti-depressant and an appetite suppressant, and as a result smokers are not fat miserable gits. You may have noticed that the huge wobbling tubs of lard that you see waddling around supermarket RDCs are inevitably non-smokers.

My message to them is “I find your obesity as highly offensive as you find my smoking” :wink:

It’s also a not very well known fact that nicotine also suppresses the “I don’t do it so I’ll condemn out of hand anyone who does” gland. Hence smokers tend to be far more relaxed, sometimes even going as far as deciding that what grown ups do to themselves is nobody but their own business. Strange but true.

It gives a small euphoric sensation .That sensation apparently outweighs the knowledge that to people who don’t smoke you’ll smell and also it could kill you.

The case for the prosecution rests M’lud.

The only problem in the world nowadays is Common Sense has gone. Years ago if you did some thing wrong you got around of ■■■■■ off the bloke in charge /owner shookhands and don’t do it again. And he got your respect for being straight to the point no ■■■■■■■■.
