    I have 1 customer like that and I love it when I get treated like that , I know what its going to cost them to use my trailer as a mobile WAREHOUSE :biggrin_25524: then I call the appropriate person who goes :biggrin_2555: when those EXTRA $ charges are added on.

    Sounds like a regular week with my last carrier when I was pulling a reefer. If it doesn't improve in a couple of weeks, change may be in order. The good news is you have a job, no accidents and get home four nights last week.

    i can just imagine how the call to the PD would go once the officer got there.

    "this guy won't move his truck!"

    why?

    "well he's trying to deliver the stuff we ordered and had put on his truck to be brought to us..."
     
    MNdriver Thanks this.

    That's the problem with trucking in general. Your paycheck is based on others stupidity and laziness. Run your tail off and then wait for the customer to take his sweet time to unload the dozen trucks ahead of you. Who cares, he gets paid by the hour and goes home at 5pm.

    Been there done that. Now I am on with J.B Hunt DCS account. The minute I get to the customer I get 4 bucks every 15 minutes until I am unloaded. Can you say SWEET???

    DAC schmac, I'll bet they remove everything that you dispute after that big payout from the class action suit.
