Beware - Driver Focus Vehicle Management Employee Review

Driving nice cars and vans. Enjoying the British highways and byways. Other drivers are always helpful and funny.

Being micromanaged to death Condescending logistic staff (controllers) Minimal costings, impossible almost, hotel and food allowance. Impossible timings between jobs because of traffic. They gain from our, going the extra mile, literally, you get nothing. Constant mistakes, whether it be postcodes or addresses. Belligerent attitude when the mistakes are pointed out and then it becomes your problem. A constant, cant you do it cheaper and faster attitude? When you are already using your hard earned railcard that you have paid for so they can get cheaper expenses from you. Expensive and difficult between transport links, that you don't get paid for, you only get paid for miles driven.

The idea you establish your own daily schedule as a self employed individual. The opportunity to travel about the country. Meet new people. Learn about and drive cool vehicles.

Notice for future jobs is provided the previous working day. Long hours cut into family time. Planning personal events is difficult. First 3 days on the job calculated to be 37 hours from leaving home and returning. You are paid collection post code to delivery post code. There is no compensation for travel delays or driving additional mileage; for example, driving to and from home for an overnight, between pick up and drop off. If that takes 3 hours to complete, that is 3 hours unpaid. If the customer is promised a car wash, extra time and mileage is not paid. If the car wash is closed, find another, on your time. If you need to charge a vehicle; extra milage, locating and waiting time to charge is not paid. You are paid for the time it takes to charge the vehicle. You are asked to return the trade plates upon which compensation due will be released. Upon returning the trade plates, you are informed you need to wait 28 days before funds are released. I remain self unemployed, "currently employed" with no work offered until they decide to forward my earned wages.
