A Tanker Drivers Job

Sorry to go back to this but those idiots on the forums have given me the hump. Do they actually know what a petrol tanker driver does? Shall we have a look?

Well firstly they have to be able to drive one of the most difficult vehicles in the world there is to drive. An articulated lorry. They then fill it with one of the most flammable, volotile substances there is, petrol.

They then take this 40 tonne mobile bomb and drive it through some of the most densly populated cities in the world. The stuff they are carrying is worth a fortune so there is always the risk of it being stolen. They are one of the easiest targest there is for terrorists. Their driving has to be perfect. The last thing you want to do is get in an accident while you are towing a bomb behind you!

How many of these morons calling them greedy would want to spend 48 hours a week in charge of a huge mobile bomb? And how much would they want to do it?
