Fuel shortage crisis | Worker books Airbnb for a week to avoid petrol queues - should you?

The nationwide fuel shortages have created a new headache for HR, just as many workforces return to the office after 18 months of homeworking. And one worker has made a surprising move in a bid to avoid queues at the pump.

As reported by the BBC, teacher Simon Sinclair lives in Bury St Edmunds, and works at an independent school in Bedfordshire.

Sinclair usually makes a 120-mile round trip to work each day, and as such, he is a frequent visitor to petrol stations.
