Maybe not, and nor do I profess to be such. However I do know the Tesco manager was a discredit to his company.

I'd always take the word from a policeman, vicar or doctor on the same footing as any other job and I really don't understand why is should be any other way.

I would rate their trustworthiness according to the content of their word..

I wouldn't expect a policeman to be honest about corruption in his chief constable's office..

a doctor probably won't boast about crooked drug reps who bribe to win custom.

and i wouldn't expect a vicar to tell me there is no god after all.

even the wretched tesco manager, he's not going to grass on his own delivery drivers..

Yes but what if I were to tell you that every single person who has worked in retail management (in a location that deals with vast amounts of people) will have have had someone told them they shouldn't be in the job. What might that tell you about the people (like you*) who come out with that?

*the guy who also cherry picks professions that are apparently better than others.

Obviously including the one you're in...

Absolutely nothing.

Believe it or not, sometimes when people say that they are correct, sometimes they are not.

He's simply stating a fact.

His behaviour was perfectly reasonable. Knowing who was responsible he tried to get something done with a quiet word before involving the police.

This is the behaviour of a reasonable person.

And if you believe that a shop manager who accuses his customers of lying over something that they would have absolutely no reason to lie about should be in a responsible, customer facing, position, you have a very peculiar idea of good business practice.

Customers? It's quite amazing, 3 random people are now customers! To be customers they actually have to buy things. These 3 people are moaning about a lorry, I don't remember them saying they actually buy anything from Tesco.

ROFLMAO. :rotfl:

I nearly added the word 'potential' or 'possible' in front of customer but then I thought, 'No, no one would be such an anally retentive idiot to quibble about that'. How wrong I was.

The point, (for the terminally hard of thinking), is that a retail manager should treat anyone who come into his domain as if they were a customer because they may well be and if they are not they may become one in the future. Or, indeed, be closely related to one or more.

You just seem like a broken record from your posts just anti retail whatever the issue is! Your adding the word customer without any knowledge of that at all proves that!

Wrong!

I'm not anti retail.

In fact I buy quite a lot of things like that.

I'm also very happy with my local Tesco.

What I am 'anti' is idiots who tell customers they are telling lies about something they would have no reason whatsoever to lie about.

That manager (on the basis of what we have been told) is a disgrace. I'm sure if you asked any of Tesco's senior management they would agree.

It would have been so much easier for him to either tell them that it wasn't something that was under his control or, if he had the tiniest bit of nous, to take down the details and contact the relevant depot manager.

Instead he tells customers (or potential customers - happy? ) that they are liars.

What a buffoon. And what sort of a buffoon defends such stupid behaviour?

I've just had to edit this..these 'customers' are being acused of lying!!!!

I'll do this in baby steps for you as you seem to be having trouble of understanding simple English.

1) When you make something up and tell it to someone else, it's called 'lying'.

2) In the OP, we are told: "He was informed that we all witnessed it and he said we were making it up and asked us to leave".

3) So he was accusing them of making it up and the coming and telling him.

4) Thus he was accusing them of 'lying'.

Is that simple enough for you?

Do you understand, now?

Calm down everyone!

Get someone living on the short cut route taken by Tescos lorries to invest in a cheap CCTV camera (and by cheap we are talking of a tenner)
Carry out surveillance over a period of days or weeks.
Accumulate enough evidence to show repeated wrongdoing over a prolonged period.
Obtain the Traffic Management Order that gives rise to the weight restriction.
Present the photographic evidence to the police, the highways authority, town council, residents' association, and Tesco HQ in Cheshunt.

Why would they want to do that? I mean using a bit of common sense would be too difficult for this lot.

It is much better to park cars causing an obstruction (which in itself is a motoring offence), start arguing with HGV drivers in the street, start arguing with a tesco manager in store, that is a much better way to stop the HGVs driving down their street.

Remember they are a police officer and they are brilliant, so they know best.

The OP describe themselves as a brilliant police officer, yet they don't even know that the police deal with motoring offences, rather than a tesco manager. :rotfl:

I would probably question what your post, even slightly, accidentally or remotely has to do with overweight Tesco trucks driving through restricted areas.

I take it you did read the thread, or is this some personal "non relevant" attack by a member who has nothing more constructive to add.

One would hope that informing the Tesco manager in question, should be efficient enough to stop this from happening again, failing this is forcing ones hand to make it MORE official, involving the Police, Council and\or the local Press, rather than relying on a simple request.
