Shippers & Receivers - Good or Bad Load O' Freight That Just Can't Wait. Had a good or bad experience with a shipper or receiver? Discuss grocery warehouses, lumpers, and anything dealing with pickups or deliveries here. Does that shipper let you park and sleep? Does the receiver FORCE you to get a lumper? Trucker Directions

Angry SYGMA -Denver CO

I watched drivers practically being shoved out of the receiving hall an hour before due. Some drivers were told they were to be there at that hour. "The Big Man" swooped in and stated, "Everyone needs to leave!" The receptionist/receiver? won't be in until seven."

There were chairs and enough room for everyone to hang out and it didn't seem like it should have bothered anyone. It was over 100 degrees! Furthermore there weren't ANY signs stating not to show up early or to wait outside. The man was just rude!

I asked if there was a pop machine somewhere and I was told that there wasn't. Later someone mentioned that there was a lounge. I guess if you are not a SYGMA driver that you're not allowed to use it. I haven't verified if this is true but it sure seems to fit the bill! I hope you drivers don't have to put up with this on a daily basis!

We all hung out, right near the door, which was also near the outhouse and talked ##### til they opened their door. I met an O/O from PRIME and a couple others that was fun to talk with anyway.

The lumpers, yeah, they were nice. They even opened the cooler way too wide with hints from two of us (gals) hoping to get the cool breeze!
