Tell us more about just the change in Tesco trunking operations.How many net truck miles and driver hours and thereby demand for drivers, has that total combined modal shift removed.The fact is road freight is contracting while rail freight is growing.Driver wage ‘increases’, in real terms, require growth in demand not contraction.

Because you so enjoy arguing on subjects of which you have little to zero knowledge.

Is this coming from your vast experience of working as truck driver in the last 20-30 years? Asking for a friend.

I think someone has been watching that Stobart trucks and trailers episode from about 15 years ago where they staged a truck driver racing a Tesco freight train from the Midlands to Scotland. :thinking:

i happened on a sideline income back at the start of covid . Making ART and started selling it on etsy/ebay. its never been big money but along with my regular job money makes a world of difference .If you need a bit extra id say start a little sideline or 2 ,something that doesnt take a lot of time preferably itll likely make a difference to your income.I now also know an artist who makes a decent living doing sketches daily quite basic art but he spends 5 hrs on his phone interracting with anyone and everyone on twitter/ig and that 5hours results in browsers/buyers of his sketches
