That's because they're Eastern Europeans now that drive battered Ford Transit pick-ups with raised sides to stop the washing machines and old bikes falling off.
They can't sell rags or bones these days.
IME the drivers of these vehicles aren't HGV class 1 (mostly skilled drivers, I'd like to think), but tipper trained knuckle draggers..
Mostly imbeciles that are bored with driving shit and mud around.
I've seen plonkers like this from the same company trying to goad each other into overtaking and then accelerating to "race" the next truck.
Serves the twats right. I hope they get disciplined.
Meat safes:
Meat was kept in one of these in a pantry or larder on a "Cold Shelf" made from granite.
It stopped flies getting to the meat and kept it cool. My Nan had one in her cottage in Wilbarston, which was rural and without very many amenities back then. (I'm talking late 50's early 60's)
Unpaid/compassionate/emergency leave?
Payback shifts? This worked in EMAS. Take a shift off at short notice as long as you pay back an equivalent shift or accept a shift given to you.
Unworkable in the care/leisure/service/hospitality/NHS/health sectors/emergency services, as well as many others.
Are you eligible if you play CoD?
I'm on max level weapons upgrades. I'd take their rabble of soldiers out easily.
That's how seriously I take the suggestion of conscription to war.
