    you keep thinking that. Send NJCatwoman a pm and ask her about JB and DAC and she'll tell you all about years on Unemployment checks waiting for JB's BS to fall off :biggrin_2558: Or better yet go to her YouTube Channel and watch her videos she explains it all right there...

    Did she follow FCRA procedure to dispute any and all inaccurate information following their class action loss? No? Enough said.

    I hear that.One place ive delivered to has 12 hrs to unload you.So what do they do start unloading 10 hrs later.You could only have a couple pallets on and they'll still wait.That does sound like a sweet deal.So how long does it normally take DCS to unload you?

    Been there, done that (when I pulled a flatbed)....more than once...in Talledega.

    It used to be even worse than it is now, at least now they have a system in place...before they changed it you just showed up, spent 30 minutes trying to figure out which truck was ahead of you, the next several hours listening to the CB so you didn't miss your door, then a few hours in the door waiting for those idiots to unload you...all the while, dodging the Precision Strip trucks who generally get loaded and unloaded pretty quick.

    I've been driving quite a while...and Precision Strip has, by far, the worst circus act of a shipping/receiving department that I have ever encountered.

    Ya. In my short time out here Ive figured the bigger the shipper/receiver the longer youre going to wait. Ive gotten accustomed to not sitting much lol Very few places I go actually make me sit. Did deliver to a place in Dallas where they said Id have to wait a couple hours. Didnt really mind as I needed 2 hours to finish my 8/2 split. Got unloaded early. Still wondering why the first drop unloaded foam with a crane... All they did was swing it 20' and put it on the ground....
