About John Tuvey:
Past knowledge of London in 2010, after studying London for 3.5 years, I've past two driving test in my life along with certificate for making sure person in a wheelchair are safe once in the back of the taxi. Before becoming a taxi driver I work for Russell Hume delivering meat and poultry in and around London and many other routes in the South east of England and South West. While at Russell Hume I made my way up to supervisor of transport, still going out daily delivering meat, my other duties included dealing with making sure drivers had correct paoer correct meat and made sure any issues with our vehicle got fixed and to organise replacements, it was a very hands on roll, dealing with drivers issues management issues and still doing my own job, it could get very intense at times, but working under pressure and problem solving was something I become rather good at, I gained lot of respect from many of my colleagues because i got things sorted and I wouldn't ask any of my workers to do anything I would not do.. I was fair in my approach to colleagues issues and support them in times of need.
All the while I still went out and made urgent deliveries,customers orders having not got the correct items or the customer need more then what they first thought, my very first job was working in a sweet shop eventually after building trust and respect for my boss I was giving loads more responsibility, ie having own set of keys, open the shop on my own, making orders when stock run low, go cash n carry after working hours, I learnt how to bank the takings, pay our delivering drivers when they bought our stock to the shop, I learned about sale and return of daily newspapers
