Worksop this morning

Up at 6 and over to Worksop for a collection out of a warehouse complex called peppers , it was massive. A security a gate with a " report here " sign met me. I stood around reading a sign on the door saying open at 8 am , it was 8.20 and it was still not open . When they did open I was told to go down to the bottom and find someone !!





I was sorted out by the warehouse lads really quickly and they were great , polite and let me know exactly what they were doing. It made a nice change.
I was loaded up and pulled up to leave through security, another sign said stop and report to drivers reception. I went in and waited in front of a massive glass window , on the other side of this window were 6 people in an office, I stood there looking through the glass and waiting for them to acknowledge me and even better , see to me , well I waited, and I waited , they were all looking very busy but eventually, It was at least ten minutes when someone came over and asked if I was ok ? I said I had just been loaded and the sign said to stop so I pulled over ! oh she said its ok just carry on . What a bleeding waste of time. unfortunately this sort of treatment is all to familiar.

I dropped the full lorry load off at the customers factory and then went back to base for a 45 minute tacho break. The rest of the day was taken up with a few local collections and a lot's sitting around.
