I think they take turns being the biggest jerks on the road. They take turns with USPS contractors and UPS (Useless Piece of S###....that's why they're big and brown)...
This is pure BS! We are given MORE than enough time on our runs! The only way a driver could be running late is by his own fault, screwing around when he should be driving, or outside factors, traffic or weather at which point the driver has to man up and not worry about time constraints. I don't worry about their timing when stuff out of my control happens, I may give them a call when getting caught in a traffic jam but I certainly do not drive like a moron trying to make up time, it's not my problem
Wow that handle brought back some memories used to run with a driver that ran Detroit MI to Franklin Ky every night went by SlowPoke and the company name was similar to magnum if memory serves me right.
BINGO Slowpoke, you are spot on!! If something out of my control happens & delays me, tuff #### everyone! I will call dispatch and/or the receiver & keep them up to date on what's happening. The load will have to be rescheduled, I will NOT drive unsafely to meet a impossible deadline! You are not going to make up the time anyway, unless you drive 400mph!
