On Wednesday the Big Fella rang me.
"Indy. We are a bit short on drivers. Would you mind coming back to work Thursday afternoon".
"Sure, boss."
I was happy to return to work because, honestly, he is quite possibly the best employer and/or superior I have ever worked under.
"Ummmmm. BD had a little problem and he hit a weighbridge with your drive tyres. We'll get them fixed for you. No worries."
So I get to work on Thursday afternoon.
"Indy. BD had another little issue."
"Oh no".
"Yeah. He clobbered your steps on the left hand side. You know he drives the T904 as a relief driver regularly, no worries, or anything else in the yard. Put him in yours and he has a failure twice in 2 days. I've ordered the parts and we'll get it like new for you ASAP."
Might be better to quarantine Matilda as well as me next time!!!!!!!!!!! Having said all that, BD is usually great to have as a relief driver because e never damages stuff (seldom, then) and will always own up if he does have a catastrophe.
I will be glad to have poor Matilda looking back to her best because, naturally, when you stop somewhere, the first thing someone says is "What did you hit?" I am quick to redress that!
