I love how some people think lorry driving is easy, at least physically. They often say things like oh sitting in a lorry driving, whoopie. I am telling you a few hours of this and they will be absolutely knackered. Mentally draining is far more tiring and knackering than physical work. I would not want to drive these routes in a car, sod them in a lorry

😀It’s not as easy as some people think. You are right, it is a mental challenge on most occasions. Thanks for watching mate

@@Rubbishcookreal yea I mean I have never driven a lorry or know anybody other than guys like you on videos but you have loads to deal with. Its very tiring concentrating all of the time, dealing with idiots wanting to be in front, run along side you trying to over take in their cars, walk out in front of you, all cos you are a truck lol. Then the things like when pick ups go wrong and things are not there or problems popping up all effecting your times, then strapping it all in or sorting out the loads, then dropping them off, then not making the hours up and having to stay some place when you never wanted to. There is loads to it. I think anyway I am telling you, grab a few of these people saying its physically and mentally easy, let them have a go lol. No probs, enjoy the videos a lot!

@@Pobsta-de7hbI got my class 2 back in 1999 and did it for a couple of years. Once I landed a permanent job in a car factory I got fellow workers asking me why I gave it up. Some would say " oh it's easy, you just sit and drive around..eat Yorkie bars...etc".

Good skills mate. I drive a B Train in NZ on line haul. Tanker with 60 Ton all up
@Rubbishcookreal4 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching the video mate! I have seen the B trains on telly and those take another level of skill to operate. Here anything over 44 ton have to apply for permission to be on the road and must be accompanied.

I used to do pallet work in North London. So many arguments with customers who couldn't understand why I wouldn't break down the pallet, carry the stuff inside then take away the pallet and wrapping.
@Rubbishcookreal4 ай бұрын
Normally pallet work is meant to be kerbside delivery with a few exceptions. I have not done that in ages, most of the work I do is commercial where I just open the curtains and they offload with a forklift. I know what you mean 😅

Bus drivers are very lucky although they have a better view than car drivers in comparison to truck drivers they sit a lot lower I would never cycle in front of a truck. I much rather be behind them
