Just had a look at some of my veg purchases this week, spring greens from Lincs, lettuce from Cambs, carrots from Worcs, not too bad really.

Just goes if they are jumping ship to go goods driving when their hourly rate was about £11.20 how poor some pay is in the construction industry  ,where my neighbour is also employed , so I think would be quite capable of knowing his wage

OHs son on about.  £31per hour is amazed we can do what we do on our pensions

I think the "was" in front of the pay rate could be a clue?. ,what has happened since to attract drivers still seem to show the difference in "some parts of construction"

HGV Driver I was chatting to the other day while he was unloading his wagon must have been telling me  pack of lies. £11.60 per hour was his wage, so he said.

I’m afraid lots of clues are needed when reading your posts, JV😕

My point is that at £50k plus bonuses, your quoted £11.20 p/h is way off the mark.

I’m not really interested, JV. I was simply putting the info I had to hand on the table. What you do with it and what you believe is up to you.
