Is there any consequences for locations who spend a excessive amount of time to load you up, or do they basically have free will to take as long as they want?
I started my day close to my pickup, got to my location around 7am, which was my appointment for a LIVE load.
Been here for 3 hours backed into a dock waiting to be loaded, before they even started loading me, when asked how much longer itd be, they said around 1 1/2, to 2 hours. Its almost 1pm now. So half of my day has already been wasted at this one location, needless to say I'm not happy one bit, and am still waiting for them to finish up.
Is there any repercussions or actions that can be taken for wasting a drivers time?
Excessive loading time!
