Maverick Driver general bs thread

Have you ever heard of getting a load that delivers to a place a day that the place isn't even open ha ha. I had just had to laugh cause i was about to get mad. Now I have to sit on it till Monday. At lest ill get the 800 miles for it so I pray ill have a better week next week.

 

Nope, never had that one happen to me, but I don't see how I could have that one happen.I Hope you do have a better week V.
Don't get hungout again sittin' on a load like that.

 

A friend of mine had that happen to him and the customer let him drop the trailer on their yard and Maverick let him bobtail home and go back Monday to get unloaded. I think he said he deadheaded 200 miles home and 200 back. He had a Friday delivery and the customer quit receiving after 1500 on Thursday.

 

Probably preachin to the choir here, but don't park in the lot in NLR with an ugly tarp job on your trailer. The instructor might turn it into a "teaching opportunity for the whole class". Especially when they pull the tarp back and see you didn't use trip straps, or double tarps on two aluminum, skidded coils.

 

No, we received the lesson. I'm supposed to be going into a trainer's truck this week.

 

I assure you, Big Jim isn't the guy that would need such a lesson. Also, not to gossip, but the driver stating that he couldn't help fix his mess because he "Left his safety vest in the dryer" didn't seem to go over well.
