Pedro

Recommended Posts

End of the month upon us, here is the thread for submitting your entries for Bike Of The Month.

 

It has to be a horizontal picture taken on a ride in November, of a bike you currently own.

I will close this and start the voting thread on the 28th evening.

At the moment im on double shifts every day and getting literally just enough time for a bite to eat and a couple hours kip before i need to start work again, this job is a right killer, today I started at 8am worked right through till 3pm, had to go get pitch head repaired so drove Nottingham to Coventry and now im back in Nottingham for my night job for half 7 start, just had a sarnie, so no sleep for me now till at least 3am or later then drive to derby for an 8am start tomorrow.... this month's wages best be right otherwise its not worth all the graft to get a measly £2.7k I got end of October

We're not on tacho as classed as plant, but still doing 18 to 21hr shifts is not sustainable, im fatigued beyond it being funny, and I've told them im not on tonight's shift due to that and they were saying that its causing issues because im the only one with aa bowser and capable of filling plant on site with water and diesel, but they said they will try and get it covered for me, so abit of them saying that they know im knackered but cant really let me rest

Even on GB rules you must be over your hours.

Your driving hours are your responsibility as the CPC holder, the company isn't the one that gets in trouble. The traffic commissioner finds out and it's bye bye CPC and possible prosecution.
