Is it just me or is anyone else even mildly curious as to what happened at Loanes ? I wonder what REALLY happened .
I quit at loans because they hade done nothing in the way to fix the lorry I was driving so I was out of work (wiper motor had gone over rainy weekend). And that is what I told them in Ireland when they asked what happened at loan transport. However Loans have be telling a different story about myself in this conspired work reference. Apparently I have been banned off so many sites for being rude and aggressive that loane transport are glad to see the back of me. This is news to me as non of the office crew at loans have ever told me I was banned from one site. Non of the places I collected/ delivered to said I was banned from there sites.
I phoned loan transport today to ask if the above was true but he denied it and said the only person that he spoke to was Curran transport. When I know Andrew breen from Breen international contacted him as well.
I have been on a legal forum about this question and it would appear at the moment that I may have a case to sue loan transport
for damages i.e. lost of potential earnings made from job’s that I was turned down for, due to the inaccurate reference.
The plot thickens !
Whatabout ringing the Agency ?
at least youd have had a couple of weeks work and perhaps ■■■■■■ learned something

If Loanes prevented you getting a job at Breens I’d be thanking them. Dodged a bullet springs to mind
What a “Bin-lid” 
The office you were in at Sawyers is the “Driver Trainers” office and Colin/Davy are 100% decent blokes
Walk to the other side of the security hut and check out the “planning office” and 30/40 odd planners looking at you 7am til 7pm
Think Sawyers can spot a full bred “numpty” when they see one as they’ve employed enough of them over the last 45yrs 
wiper motors not working on a rainy weekend■■?..them trucks need paid for.best be heading to the nearest agency office.

Not true. Maybe the case in NI, not somewhere I know well but as far as IRL is concerned we are flat out. Struggling to get drivers, struggling to cover work. Every bit as busy as the UK

I’m just going off what people have told me off the street; what you hear in the pub.
Has it picked up yet ‘hum ar um well its pick up a little but not great or it has for some’
But I can only speak for the R.I as I would not be seen dead drinking with those flag waving tossers who are to busy playing catholic protestant space invaders.

A bullet sound literally practically. I went to Ireland to find European work; but to do this you ever have to be in the goody goody gang or a foreigner who they suspect is going to know the roads in Europe better then you.
I worked for Breens for two days. But I decided to resign as things did not seam quite right. And I am glad I did because Andrew Breen said he would not be paying me for the two days work I did for him with every excuses under the sun.
And if you upset them a bullet is what you might get; IMHO they are tinkers. The kids don’t go to school they work in the garage and every time you talk to Andrew there is always his oldest sun and some other staff who come over just to watch his back.
The only way you would catch him out alone is if you hired a professional hit man to do the job.
Go down to the nearest pub and ask about him!
Which is why I have decided to refer a complaint to the Rights Commissioner under the Payment Of Wages Act 1991.
Which reminds me to ask you all. Is there a way I can download or save the events of the days in question from my digi card. For evidence that I worked for breens transport
So I did not get any European work in the end and have now taken the attitude; right ■■ ya your all a bunch of swiveling jumped up pigs with no brain and a big mouth. Get someone ells to do you’re Euro dirty work and in the mean time I will look at finding something ells to do as an occupation, rather then a HGV driver
Pick it up and put it in .
I’ve heard some drivel in my time but this takes the biscuit . Your attitude STINKS
You want to drop a trailer to ship home on a Friday night -drive two and a half hours home for the weekend then drive two and a half hours back on a Monday morning all because you don’t want to use your car . Five hours lost just so you can save £25 in fuel .
Your slagging off one of the top companies in the North who offer some of the best pay and conditions going - a company that you never hear of looking drivers cos most drivers stay when they get in the door at Loanes simply because they are a tight knit family firm who look after their employees .
Then you turn on all the inhabitants of Ireland “those flag waving tossers who are to busy playing catholic protestant space invaders” - way to go pal - theres probably not an outfit in the whole of Ireland that would give you a job now.And for your own saftey I’d sugest you stay well clear of Ireland for some time after making comments like that - and thats not a threat in case you decide to be all offended by what I say just a simple statement of the facts.
I can’t decide if as happysack says your on drugs or your a cockwomble or Bigtrucks description of Bin-lid is more accurate .
A very simple sugestion for you ,take your licence and put it in a brown envelope and put this adress on the front -
DVLA
Swansea
SA99 1BU
Put a note in along with your licence telling them you wish to surrender your licence as your to stupid to hold one .
Don’t even bother replying to this - I’ve lost all intrest in this - real life is calling - time to leave your little fantasy land .
Do you have a pair of brown super Hampton and a scania bomber jacket.
Boss & driver
Either the school holidays are on or this guy is a prize moron, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and say bored schoolkid.

Classic
Maybe grass season has got red up early or this Bongo has coped a few gate pillars or lay a few silage trailers on their sides and its back to the trucks
His grammar is that bad makes me think he might just be “Taliban”
Christ, no wonder we are treated like numb skulls. With a prize specimen like that pretending to be a driver. Perhaps a move to Romania might be suited.

Such a great loss to the Irish transport industry. Frankly I’m hard pressed to see how we can ever recover from this mortal blow.
This is the very reason I don’t come on this forum that much typical self important prick
If I was you I would go get job driving a milk float.
With that attitude am not supprised you was given a bad reference and am pretty sure loans was glad to see back of you.
Throwing rubbish out of window with sawyers name all over it your a f**king Muppet.
It’s oblivious where your going wrong. Your opening your mouth at a interview

Why just the Irish transport industry. I’d say the industry in general. A complete roaster.
