I’ve been there 3 years now & I love it, best driving job I’ve had. I could earn more elsewhere but they’re steady away & treat us drivers really well. I’ll be there until I retire (hopefully 😂)

Ye, I’ve never had to worry about my hours, I average 35 hours a week driving & normally do 12-13 hours a day with an 11 off each night…… that’s my kind of driving job but maybe no good to a young ‘un who needs to max their hours out to earn a fortune.

If you think about this with any logic 70 plus hrs a week is almost twice the average working week, i would want considerably more than £800/850 take home for squeezing two weeks work into one..
