Anyone else noticed the same?

We all get a bit paranoid from time to time when we get a quiet day or two, nature of the beast isn't it, but i suspect come the end of the week, you'll find you're screaming for extra drivers

Pretty constant work here. Had a couple of small jobs then 10 minutes later get asked to do long distance ones in the opposite direction which had to turn down!

I've learnt not to accept small jobs on busy days unless it's for a very good client or I'm already almost done for the day. They always mess up your day!

Always has been swings and roundabouts in this game.

A job is a job, sometimes it works out other times not, but it's easy to be greedy and cut one's own nose off!
