Report
Encountered an awful driver this afternoon when I was trying to get back to my house after being in hospital all morning. Instead of parking in a suitable place or asking the customer to move their vehicle to park safely he pulled across the whole road. Blocking access to over 20 houses. We waited for about 10 minutes and he was faffing around trying to get a trolley and pallet in a garage. Ignoring the fact that 2 cars were waiting. The customer he was delivering to even suggested to him to move the lorry too but didn’t listen.

Fantastic company to work for. Even though I wasn't there long and my truck was older than me I really enjoyed my time there.
