Hang in in their Staines, it was only a matter of time until the bsterds switched on you.

For your own well being though, I'd step away from the internet/news. Its going to be a long hard slog, don't get wound up my The Mail!

We're all in this together!

Stay safe mate.

Thank you mate, you’re support is very much appreciated. You are right of course, but easier said than done……some of the stuff you read in the media is truly ****ing vile and paints a picture that just isn’t there.The pure injustice and manipulation of it all has genuinely made me question if I want to do this anymore. I could walk into another job, that might be longer hours, but with overtime I could earn the same as I do now, with far less stress than working on the trucks.
I’m luckier than most of course, that money isn’t a massive issue as I worked long hours for years, paid off my mortgage and put a bit away……will just take each shift as it comes but right now I feel deflated.
 
Not much more I can say than agree with you I'm afraid.

Just make sure you look after yourself as well as you do others, its the one thing we always forget.
