I wouldnt want to drive for a living, but I know that the majority of people that drive trucks/vans/wagons all day like doing so. Apparently they like to chat a lot on 'CB' radios and enjoy troughing full english breakfasts.

There are plenty of well paid driving jobs about for good drivers that want to work

Depends on the area you live in TBH.

I've had plenty of driving jobs and I really enjoyed it but with the cut-throat market there is now with foreign companies and drivers flooding the market people like Amigo, who will freely admit is in a reasonably secure and reasonably well paid job, are not as common as they used to be.

I'll give you an example from my local area... I could go on the road as an artic driver doing container work and earn slightly more than I do at the docks, but I'd be working 60 hour weeks and away at least 3 nights... Not for me ;) ;)

transport company i used to do work for took a financial hit. in order to reduce costs it "lost" all the drivers who had been there for donkeys. last time i popped in to see them, the drivers they did have were all foreign and i suspect on a drastically reduced rate.

My point exactly... I come in contact with a lot of lorry drivers at work and I would say that 75%+ are foreign... Some of them can barely speak English :o :o Of course, there are some who speak it very well :y :y

The Foreign drivers are a liability as they have no idea what they're supposed to be doing. Frequently they'll walk under a 30 Tonne container or stick their hands under it because they haven't got the twistlocks set correctly :o :o

Any suggestions welcome...

In order to avoid being unemployed I simply need to earn £100 a week...thats just £20 a day...sounds simple so does anyone have any ideas on how I can achieve that on a regular basis??? Something simple that I could do from home would be great of course lol :y

I could strip cars and make the money no problem but it causes issues with the neighbours/council and I have no where else to strip them :( Cheers, Chris.


If it were me I could be a Male Prostitute, but your Ugly so thats out..... sorry no more ideas  ;D

From what I've been told, get into removals - "man with van" kind of thing. 

Mate of mine got a cheap Tranny van, and some contacts through a friends of friends, and he was away - house removals at first, then offices etc.

With the money he's racking in at the mo, I'm half tempted myself!!

Been agency driving for the past 4 months but its far too on off...not had any work for a couple of weeks and I need something stable...and not too many jobs of any kind around Gainsborough...

Might have to look into the wheelie bin thing, I dont think ours gets a clean up option...think prostitution is out, ugly and knackered is not a good start for that  ::)
