1. Not doing the weekly vehicle checks [1] properly and letting
vans go out with bald tyres.

2. Putting 6.30am down on his time sheets instead of 8.00am -
Apprentices do not get paid travel time. Although to be fair one of
the electricians told him to put 6.30 on his sheets just to see him
get into trouble when he asked what time to put on the sheets.
(same apprentice also got a bollocking for doing the same a few
months ago)

3. Using "text speak" on his job report forms. I heard the words "I
do not want to read **** like that" shouted as he handed them in.

[1] All vehicle checks have a signed and dated form so we know who
checks which van each week.

OOOOO, you are evil.
How detailed a vehicle check do you expect?
Have they got to check the oil?
How about brake fluid?
How about track rod ends?
How about excessive emissions?
When I drove someones van all I checked was petrol oil and water.


Oil, coolant, tyres and keep records of any oil, antifreeze and air needed
to top up every Friday. Brake fliud and power steering fluids are on a
monthly check (ie the first Friday of the month).

They then always top up the windscreen washer bottle, the trunking in the
roof bars and also clean and hoover the van if needed. If they have been
annoying idiots then it is your duty to drive through lots of muddy puddles
on a Friday afternoon.
