I worked for Asda for nearly 43 years in a store on the South Coast. Interesting to see this part of the operation. Christmas in retail is a very difficult time of the year, not appreciated by most folks. Thankfully I am now retired so can just be like all the other customers. Merry Christmas and thanks for all the entertainment this last year .

[@coopa2002]

The warehouses are chaos in what we call peak week (18th-23rd December) and last week the stores were knocking back freezer stuff because they couldn't hold it all

[@BigDavie2000]

30 years on the back door for Asda here. This year has definitely been the worst I've seen it. My store has stock everywhere, untouched delivery pallets from over a week ago. Luckily we have been able to store all temperature controlled stock correctly but it was tight. I put it down to lack of staff with Christmas temps lasting a shift or two then go AWOL. Processes are being skipped which results in the wrong stock coming in and leaving some shelves empty. On the wait Luke had at the store, I would imagine it was the store playing Tetris with pallets trying to make space. I bet that pallet of Bud and the pallet of Proseco (white boxes) went straight out on the shop floor and would be half stripped by the time it reached the booze aisles.

[@almostanengineer]

@@coopa2002 they tried sending out frozen on pallets, we just went ‘nope, take it back, we’ll have it tomorrow on cages’ 😂

[@almostanengineer]

@@BigDavie2000 I’ll second this, we ended up putting ambient deliveries in the HS loading bays as it was the only covered space we had left this year, and that included the 110 high bay pallet spaces. - we just about managed to keep bulk beers on sale, and there were huge areas like crackers that we were massively short on this year.

[@Nabby933]

@@almostanengineer is funny u say that we had one whole bay of crackers gone in our store i do POD/CNC stuff but i need to get my DL to drive been out about 5 times on the van and it seems so easy just chilling with the drivers

[@aquanick2001]

35:08 - Absolutely right, waiting time is POA not break, so you are perfectly entitled to have a break where you choose (waste a bit of time so the 2nd run gets knocked on the head) sorted 👍🏻 Sometimes you have to make a bad situation work to your own advantage. I’d do exactly the same 😉

[@bluecardholder]

When I worked at Sainsbury's the drivers never unloaded the trucks - the driver parked up, handed over his keys and the warehouse staff unloaded and reloaded with waste and returns.

[@almostanengineer]

Yet people wonder why Sainsbury’s is more expensive 😅

[@damianfletcher4690]

Your lucky mate every time I delivered to sainsburys I always had to help unload and reload

[@Harry-qu7vg]

I love waiting around for hours. Means I get paid £15/hr to play Elden Ring on me Steamdeck, suits me fine 😁 I recommend one to any trucker who likes PC gaming.

[@SideshowBob44]

Not to mention the thousands of older games you can emulate.

When I did traction work out of Didcot we were allowed to park overnight in their car park, access to canteen, showers, etc. Top job.

[@davidwright793]

I remember shifts like that with Asda. So much time wasting, so much ineficiency, so much frustration. Glad I'm retired but enjoyed watching!

[@justanothercourier]

I used to work in a supermarket warehouse myself and later in an RDC for the same supermarket so got to see both sides of the coin. You're lucky the one you're at seems well run and productive, many aren't. I really don't envy wagon drivers delivering to a lot of stores. The smaller ones usually have openings that some bicycles would struggle to get through and as you highlighted it can sometimes take you an age to even get in the first place due to the chaos in store. The old supermarket I worked in stopped wagon deliveries during the night as it was located in a housing estate (which was built after the store)... Some of the residents complained about being kept awake at night by the fridges on the wagons so the useless store management instead of telling them to politely do one and stop moaning caved in and stopped the deliveries. This in turn would cause stock shortages during the day sometimes due to the online orders being picked at night. And when a delivery did come in at 8am the following morning meant chaos ensued in both the front and back of the store... Anyway rant over, seems like you're enjoying yourself bud so keep it up. Long time lurker on your channel here.

[@SpudderRail]

19:48 Typical range rover driver... "I'm in a range rover, I can park where I want"

[@johnnytyrrell7060]

Your 100% Right to take your break because while you where waiting you chould not go away from the truck for 45 min's to get something to eat in case they called you to drive in so you had to stay there on standby and that is work

[@krzysztofbartkowiak6325]

[@LeyenaZoey]

Will say it again: Have a great Christmas Luke, and a very nice new year!

[@lukecinahgv]

Thanks, you too!

[@TheParad0xical]

As an ASDA driver got to say that's a pretty average day for us. Netflix gets some hammer in my working day!

[@isoghai2061]

Did 20 years for Asda and you are so right about those dodgy palettes....

[@sophiedolman2230]

I've been there many times, not a driver, but a contractor for their vehicle telematics. They are probably the best distribution centre I visit. So laid back, so friendly. I really enjoy my visits to Didcot!

[@davehughes6501]

Only time i have waited 4 or more hours to be tipped, is when there has been other wagons waiting before me(ambient, milk etc..) That backdoor guy took the piss. I'd have also give him that scanner back, thats their job not the drivers.

[@petejones9755]

Re scanner - I'd have said "me no understanding, me from Poland." It's worked for me several times 😂

[@deejayy2k]

as someone who works for another supermarket its interesting to see how asda do it, having to scan every DU barcode and with a manual pallet truck sounds like a right ballache, glad ours get auto accepted so all we have to do is unload the trailer.

[@liamrobinsonsanchez]

It’s not actually he drivers responsibility to scan the pallets at store but a lot of us didcot drivers will offer to do so to help out. Also every store has an electric pallet truck for Asda drivers to use.

[@almostanengineer]

It’s not the drivers job to do that, and most stores have scissor lifts and PPTs, sadly the contract drivers aren’t signed off to use them.

[@louker05]

I have never watched any HGV drivers on KZbin but yours got recommended.. good watch and all the best brother

[@yonmons]

Been a pleasure riding shotgun throughout the year with you Luke certainly clocked up some miles. Here’s to 2023 🍺 and more trips within the UK 👍

[@ericwalsh3200]

A lot of supermarkets used to give you the front door address not the loading bay you'd often see trucks turning round in the car park

[@CubejamF1]

They make the drivers unload the wagons at ASDA? I work on the backdoor for another supermarket and we do it all ourselves, the driver doesn't have to do anything... and definitely not using a manual truck.

[@CubejamF1]

@@sebboffey6737 nah, a different one. The drivers do help with the cages though. Just not the pallets. Everything onnthe trailer is auto accepted whennit gets to the store so no scanning each thing

[@kevinsmoother]

I can't believe that store kept you waiting for 3 hours to offload. Surely the depot can message the store so they have people ready for it. Have a nice Christmas

[@markm-ci6rj]

I wonder if Luke rang them up and let them know he was waiting?

[@SuperBigblue19]

They don't pay them enough to care?

[@tilerman]

@@SuperBigblue19 And that's exactly what it boils down to. I used to work in goods inwards in a busy yard a few years back and the majority of the guys didn't give a toss. No sense of urgency, no discipline, no respect for others, just bone idle and lazy. 3 hours is outrageous and just not fair. I really feel for luke here.

[@nick4995]

dont deserve deliveries arsesholes

[@almostanengineer]

@@tilerman that’s an unfair comment, there are loads of stores with great warehouse teams, and guys who hate making the drivers wait, it’s not always down to them, as an example, we regularly get planned an ambient at 04:30, at that time in the morning, we have a chilled wagon on the bay, a milk wagon in the que, three bread wagons dropping by as and when, sadly the ambient isn’t as high a priority as it gets marshalled until later that night, but the chilled etc needs to be worked before 8am. Most of the issues stores have are down to the planning team not listening to the stores requests, or planning multiple loads within a short space of time. For example, I had 3 ambient, a chilled and a George all planned within the same 2 hour time period, you can take a guess how that turned out.

[@glynlewis3424]

Used to deliver for Tesco out of Crick and the wait you had at Farnborough was common at Christmas as the management wanted the stores rammed with goods and the poor old back door man had nowhere to put it! Hope you had a good Christmas Luke and here's to a great New Year.

[@Mitchellmotor]

Thanks for all the vlogs! at 35:30 you talk about the break. By Law waiting is no break because you do not have the time in your own hands.. you can not freely go where you want to go. so it is not counted as a break

[@50mi55ile]

It should be counted as period of availability

[@aquanick2001]

Although if Luke didn’t switch it to a 15 minute break at some point before 1300, he will get a 6 hour WTD infringement. If it was me I’d have flicked it onto break for 15 as soon as they said there would be a delay. Then went and had a proper break later like Luke did.

[@markm-ci6rj]

Some secrtets not many people know, Asda sell food and drink, they even have cafes ar some stores 🙂

[@csruane]

Merry Christmas and Womderful 2023 to all and yours.

[@raydebbiemcdonald3208]

Surprised the doors weren't sealed for security. Hope you had a great Christmas. Good luck for 2023.

[@aquanick2001]

The safety of the load is the drivers responsibility and we have to check that everything is secure and strapped properly. If it’s not to the drivers satisfaction then we can refuse to take the load. That’s why it’s not sealed.

[@paulmulks]

Merry Crimbo Luke, hope you and your family have a good one! All the best for 2023 🍻

[@Brandon25043]

Loved it when our delivery turned up my frozen was on pallets, so when I arrived for my shift, I had to work the frozen but I didn't even have a pallet truck/pump truck... Welcome to asda

I've been a truck driver some 30 years been watching your good self a few years now enjoy your content. After a car accident my back I'd screwed unable to get back into a truck again but watching you keeps a fond memory of my time behind the wheel going . Happy New Year buddy

[@ryanmoran2109]

I used to work for Sainsbury’s taking deliveries into the store and some of the pallets were a joke, I can’t remember how many collapsed before they got to the store 😂

[@aquanick2001]

The pallet stackers don’t care……if it’s on, it’s gone 🤐

[@marktucker208]

Man I wish there was somewhere you can go and pay like £100 for an hour with an instructor to drive a truck in a big open space so you can try it out before deciding if you want to spend all the money on training. I’ve been wanting to start for like a year now but I’m put off by things like reversing, driving in traffic, actually being able to control the trailer during normal driving

[@BobMc87]

I've been driving trucks for a long time now, see if someone said to me "You have to drive somewhere you've never been before! What do you want to drive?" I'd pick a truck and trailer every time! Once you get used to them they are great. I'm sure there are places like you mentioned, I'm sure I've seen them before. But there are many other things to consider, other than the actual driving of the truck.

[@redzed40]

I worked as a driver for Asda and could use there store canteen's at discounted rates was a crap job especially when I was forced onto 1am starts on store deliverys where you had a keys for back gates tip yourself cages put in there fridges and reload full load of empty cages off a scissor lift my rest days being Tuesday Wednesday normal shift mi 12 hours this was at Wigan RDC run by wincanton where mates got different treatment I had to leave as I was like walking dead. Never shopped there since

[@maxmacpherson1957]

Those tri-part green labels...we remove one part and affix to the paperwork or even a sheet of A4, so we have a record of each one scanned. Eliminates any discrepancies, but always check pallet for more than one label.

[@ethanterry7520]

I’m so happy my food was delivered by Luke lol 😂

[@slabbyrider8665]

Dam then cages look so nice. After doing palletised multidrop for a couple of months I have gone onto cages with One Stop on a 4 day week for £39k plus bonus plus o/t. But I've only been on my own for a few weeks and I've been delivering cages filled to the max with alcohol (thanks Xmas) in deep snow over rough ground and up 45 Deg slopes and it's been hard stressful work (left a comment on your TomTom vid so you get the jist of the stress) almost quit yesterday but I keep hearing the words of one of the trainers saying "a lot of newbies quit because they don't give it enough time" Typing this whilst drunk lol so excuse the mistakes I'd like to have started vlogging but because of our lorries getting targeted by thieves I can't. Literally break in whilst stopped at lights etc.

[@ShensoB]

Another great vid Luke. Supermarkets don’t worry you are sitting outside 2/3/4/ hours. They don’t look on making a profit from their haulage, it’s a just a means to an end. I’ve run past RDC’s empty on my way back to the depot while they send empty trucks from my depot to pick up pallets/cages. Planning can be archaic. Happy New Year to you and yours…Keep those lovely vids coming bud.

[@studiosoftmorecambe6879]

You would think they would give you an indication of how log your wait is, that is what sensibility does. If there is a delay, they give you a canteen pass and get what you want.

[@Sarge084]

I don't miss the supermarket work one little bit! In fact the whole retail delivery industry is best as a distant memory as far as I'm concerned! Luke, ask your boss to look into Royal Mail traction work, now *that* is easy money!

[@incognito96]

Don't we don't want the publicity, everyone will want to do it. Stick with supermarkets.

I drive for asda out of a chilled depot. 4 hours is ridiculous, you should of rung the depot. Also it’s not your job to scan the pallets. If you aren’t told tho then I guess you don’t know. Hope you had a good Xmas!

[@RussWWFC]

I work in the High Wycombe store and was in the warehouse for over a decade. Best place to work in the store I think, but nice to see things from your end. Didcot not the most reliable depot from what I remember but had good craic with the drivers.

[@hamsternibbler5582]

Used to work in the Asda Warehouse and if a driver turned up within an hour of my shift finishing i used to keep him waiting outside to save working over. 😂😂

I can’t believe that they don’t give you a motorised pallet truck. All Lidl stores have them when we use to unload at stores.

Wow is Asda outdated or something? Scanning stock in? Waiting till they're ready to tip over 2+ hours? As someone that works for the supermarket with the orange name , we're happy to see deliveries way earlier than expected! Seems they got their sh*t the wrong way round.

[@almostanengineer]

It’s not normally this bad, some stores struggled over the Christmas period with space constraints, this one seems particularly bad, the longest I’ve had a driver waiting is 2.5 hours, only because he arrived just after another decker, and that was a full 44 unload, and both decks with returns. By scanning each container we have caught tons of missing pallets, it normally turns out to still be at the depot and appears on the next load, but it’s essential as far as I’m concerned, scanning a single barcode seems silly to me.

[@ryan-574]

@@almostanengineer But it's 2023, everything is automated from it being picked to being loaded to being unloaded. Get handed your delivery report when the trailer arrives, count how many you have and count how many you take off. No scanning, no checking barcodes etc. Seems so outdated

Hi Luke, HNY. Excellent and typical 'no day is the same' in this job! One question for a newby..... when waiting at the store - it went on and on, so what did you do tacho wise for this period of time? Would be really interested and very useful to know and understand, as it would prepare me (and others who are new I am sure) what to do so I still retain maximumn driving hours/time available.

Many years ago I worked warehouse and unloading at a safeways supermarket yep safeways shows how long ago it was. And it wasn't down to us in the store it was the bad planning that we would have hours sitting round literally doing nothing messing about in the warehouse then often 3 or 4 lorry would turn up within an hour or so and then you may also get the separate milk and bread lorries arriving so drivers had to sit and wait for hours. I didn't care cos I was young and got paid either way but always thought it was such a waste of everyone's time

My younger brother worked for ASDA from the Warrington depot. Apparently, nearly all the drivers have left because ASDA are terrible to work for, so they now have to hire contractors to do their drliveries, although not sure about Didcot, but Warrington didn't have a very good reputation. Anway, aside from that Luke, hoping you and your family have a great Christmas and New Year, and a great big thank you for your videos throughout 2022. Loved the 12 Days of Christmas song. So, what happened to Scott and Ned Kelly Ireland?🤣🤣

[@almostanengineer]

The drivers left because ASDA changed their contracts to match other supermarkets, most of the drivers I know who left ended up coming back once they figured out it’s pretty easy work in comparison to some of the things they ended up doing in general

I’m jealous of your location. Trying to emigrate there. I’m a truck driver at the didcot depot he was at.

Thanks for the vlogs Luke! Gave me a good amount of inspiration and confidence to be a HGV driver! Happy Christmas 🤝
