When you could earn a decent honest living
Remember when we could earn a good wage and still be home in time to get s**t done then pick the kids up from school. They were the days unbelievable how much this job has changed in the last 20 years.

I can go out on delivery on a Saturday at the same time I used to be finished! Different times.

I will never stop being annoyed by this. I slept-in once on a Saturday in my first year and despite it being a complete nightmare of a day I was still finished 90 minutes earlier than we do now.Edward Hunter wrote: ↑13 Dec 2024, 20:16I can go out on delivery on a Saturday at the same time I used to be finished!

It's the height of summer that does it for me, arrive at the do after the time we used to leave on delivery when it was still a reasonable temperature outside for a couple of hours before the sun came up fully.Edward Hunter wrote: ↑13 Dec 2024, 20:16I can go out on delivery on a Saturday at the same time I used to be finished!

Re: When you could earn a decent honest living
I did two rounds on a Satuday once and finished my last bundle about 10.30. .... a bloke washing his car said. "" sleep in did we ? "" I had the last laugh . As I walked away I found a £20 note on his drive..... which I handed to him of course
