Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

Wouldn't surprise me if you're right.

 

I tbink I figured out what was jinxing me on that GM load out of Social Circle. I was putting my mega lock on BEFORE I reached the gate. This morning, drove in, picked the load up, wrote down the seal and cleared the gate without any problems. Then I put my lock on the back , sent in my load call and was on my way, no muss, no fuss.

 

With all the Crete drivers around that shipper, I didn't want to run into one that is trying to earn some brownie points by ratting on anyone they can about stuff like that. I am surprised I didn't get a call from safety on that last load I delivered in Marietta because it was one of those trailers that the chrome safety handle on the left door was mounted too low and there was no way the company lock would fit. But it had a 1/4 cable seal that went thru and around both seal latches and handles....they must make or store some valuable stuff in the Independence caves. When I dropped it in Marietta that was one of the many things I wrote up to fix, but I doubt it'll get done. It was a 2 yr old trailer, and I can't believe I was the 1st one to want it fixed.

 

####, a CPAP, and now it's on your record for life.

The locks usually come out of your checks after a few weeks...you only get most of the money back if/when you return them, but they charge you for a new set, but only return the price of a used set because, well, they're supposed to be used on every load.
