Banned from shipper

Yes know the feeling only to well unfortunately unless all the drivers got together and started to boycott the warehouse its going to be rather hard to do anything unfortunately you have to say yes sir no sir three bags full sir and be nice and just count to 10.

 

In the local days, you would just take the freight back to the dock, unload it and when they ran out deliver it. Had a friend that got kicked out of a place for throwing rocks at the crane operator

 

Power tripping probably. I run into a power tripper once in awhile. Almost always female - dont have much patience with em -

 

I asked a dispatcher once in my ltl days who was a power tripper and a jerk if I could sit in his chair...why he asked ? ...I said so I can soak up some of that power !

 

Just changing the "h" in "shipper" in the title to "tr" reflects real-life experience.

 

Had a similar issue once. Dropped a load at a site and picked up a stack of three empty flatbed trailers. All three trailers had the same name on them as was on the side of my truck, but the security guard said I couldn't leave without a material pass. I did.

 

Repowered a beer load from another driver and delivered it. Company policy was that I had to sit in a little room while they unload the beer. Some time later they came and told me I had to come help unload it because some of the pallets fell over spilling beer cans all over the place.

I declined to help so the guy called my company claiming I cussed them out and would be banned from ever delivering there again.

Stuff like this is why I have a bodycam with me at all times.

 

I just actually really looked at your avatar.

Don't know what the policy is now, when we deliverd to distributers , they would have a can of beer in there hand.

 

Just this week, I ran late for a reload appt at a customer. Shipper was a real dick about. 2 hours. He says, another typical trucker.....hope you have a good excuse for being late. Told him yep, I do. Just left your house, your wife wouldn’t let me leave!
