It just gets so second nature to me; it's hard to put into words for somebody else. I often don't even THINK through .. let a lone TALK through the maneuvers. Kudos, man!

I got buried today. I mean slammed. 33 deliveries not counting pick ups. I was out the door when I heard "Hey R/R, when you get into town, don't break anything; disconnect from your Rocky set and head straight for the Best Western hotel".
Errrr, excuse me?
"A SLC linedriver locked his keys in his truck and wants to leave right away"
Yeah, ok, I am ######## buried. I will swing by eight stops into my route. His hotel is next to my ninth stop.
"No you won't, he is kinda a big deal linedriver and wants to go home. When you unlock his door, you need to go inside the hotel lobby and let the front desk know that his truck is ready so they can call his room."
Umm... Ok, not an issue at all, I'll even run his truck across the street real quick and top of his fuel and clean his windows before I harrass the front desk.
I ran my eight stops and pulled into the lot. Guy was by his truck with bags in hand. Fumming pissed and gave me an earful.
You want your truck unlocked or not? I can come back in two hours. I have a lift gate delivery for this very hotel.
Of course he threatened to call my TM and file a formal complaint through the company. I gave him my full name and employee number.Bob Dobalina, Cardfan89, MACK E-6 and 4 others Thank this. -
eh, you could have gone to the hotel first, had a nice breakfast on his room card, sat back, enjoyed the view, unlock him and then well delivered 15 or so, the rest can be returns.
why can't the office go out to unlock him? we're not talking about New York City here.
Oh, and I wish I was as thin as my patience.MACK E-6, Mike2633 and road_runner Thank this. -
He's just another swinging dong freight monkey like you and I. F him.
If it ain't his name on the pay stub, I don't care who he is.Gearjammin' Penguin, MACK E-6, Mike2633 and 1 other person Thank this. -
