Re: Tabaluga's 2.0

@TAB why is it that truck drivers think they should earn more money? I'm no doubt very naive but given all you do is sit in a cab all day and do deliveries I don't see why you should be getting mucho bucks.

I hope you don't take offence at this either, that is certainly not my intention my dear Tabby 🙂

Re: Tabaluga's 2.0

@TAB yeah I can understand for long haul drivers, I was more thinking of the metro drivers.

If 80k is what long haul drivers get then that's absolute BS. They definitely should earn more.

@TAB yeah I wish my brother was more useful...I mean handy! Mind you he did a good job replacing the kitchen tap so I shouldn't complain.

We have the tree guys coming tomorrow to remove a tree that has caused heaps of damage. Best quote was $2000 and they take the tree away. No doubt to sell as firewood so double profit lol.

Re: Tabaluga's 2.0

I paid like 4-6000$ can remember . took them ages and some days had 4 people and 2 vehicles ,cant see how he made money, asked if he wanted more at end he said all okay

Re: Tabaluga's 2.0

@TAB that sounds like it would have been a massive job.

The tree I'm having removed is relatively easy so the arborist said.
