I suppose you would need to photoshop too to balance things up though with the hidden gems in the profile. Just a thought. Well Iām currently married and employed.

Social Justice League Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 The furlough scheme has shown that "money" can be found to pay people to sit at home drinking Corona all day.Ā When it ends everyone will ask for more. Ā FFS I can see November and December being a fecking nightmare as I think we'll see riots and looting for Christmas.Ā New xboxes and PS5's could be first out the Currys window imo.

ticket2ride Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Hull is one of the places where they're building the lorry parks isn't it? There should be a lot a of new jobs filling in forms etc due to all the Brexit red tape. Would be a pretty soul destroying job though.

Yes the job market will revert to being "challenging" in the New Year, but the cold weather normally means far less chance of civil disturbance. It'll be April or May before anything starts to kick off. Quote New xboxes and PS5's could be first out the Currys window imo. We could start to see delivery vans being targetted more. I'm surprised they haven't been robbed more (I've heard of a couple of cases locally where gangs stole the van, but that can only happen where the driver leaves his keys behind).

I'm surprised they haven't been robbed more (I've heard of a couple of cases locally where gangs stole the van, but that can only happen where the driver leaves his keys behind). When I last worked in distribution, in 2008, there was a real problem in Italy. The mafia had rather a gentleman's agreement with the haulage drivers, leave the back of your lorry open when you go for a coffee, and we will only take one pallet of product. Or lock your lorry, get beaten and we will take what we like.Ā At the time our product, blank dvds, was really popular with the black market for piracy, and we were getting ripped off weekly. But only in Italy, not in any other country in Europe or North Africa.Ā In the UK the type of theft we saw was mainly people who lived in Tower blocks claiming not to have received their parcel. Allegedly gangs hang around the bottom of tower blocks saying 'oh that's my parcel I'll save you the bother of taking that to the 40th floor' then they run off with them. The largest theft from a courier in the UK I had was over Ā£60k but the police weren't interested. Claim on your insurance, that was all they had to say.Ā I can only imagine this covid policy of leaving parcels on doorsteps and taking a picture of them is fueling a mini crime boom. Can't believe the rough parts of town where I've seen an amazon parcel sitting on the front step of a tenement block of 16 flats.Ā Ā Edited September 16, 2020 by regprentice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
