I gigged at a logistics company in Stoke a few years ago in a portacabin with a load of depot managers who had risen through the ranks of trucking.

Best bunch of people I ever worked with!

Current Client Co is in the centre of Glasgow but doesn't have any Glaswegian truckers in it, except one of the birds in the canteen

Just wondered. Cojak seemed to think that there was a possibility that someone was working in an office full of glaswegian truckers.

Just wondered who she was pointing at.

It's not you or me obviously

I'm in Glasgow. no truckers in the office, but there is a call center nearby, the employees look one level above those from the Scheme program.
