    Some signage is very poor at these shippers/ receivers. ANYONE can make a mistake, and we do, however, it's HOW we get out of it that matters.

    And we are merely players.
    Performers and portrayers.
    Each another's audience.
    Outside the gilded cage ...

    If you consider 3 weeks running team to be 'training', then yeah, they're a training company.

    ok let me clearify for some of you.... he pulled thru the guard shack and did not stop, when the guards got him stopped, he was told to turn around and go back out. then make a u-turn on the other side of guard shack and then stop BEFORE at the dispatch window. he turned around and went out and then turned into the employee parking area. THIS IS NOT A SIGNAGE ISSUE. THIS IS A COMMON SENSE ISSUE.!!! just past the guard shack its wide enough to blow a u-turn but for whatever reason he went past and turned into the lot, hell he could have run back out onto the road and made his u-turn instead of what he did.
