    Yeah, I divided up a half a pallet of paper plates once too.

    The cases had gotten wet in the warehouse. But they were bagged inside the boxes. I think the office still uses them. Made me very popular at BBQs that summer.

    Had nasty finch in Norfolk do that to me once. Pallet of canned olives. Claimed 'damaged in transit' even though the cans had fork holes all the way through them and the juice was dripping off the forks.

    They left the pallet on the truck. Had to take it 90 miles out of route to the closest yard and unload it there. No idea what they did with it.

    Took pics of the intact pallet with the fork holes and managed to grab a pic of the forks covered in olive juice. Never heard a word about it.

    What's next? "Rob a bank or you're fired"? Just because a dispatcher gives an order, does not make it lawful. Many dispatchers (pending the company) may not be familiar with the laws under DOT regulations.

    Dispatch has asked me to put white out on the date of a bill and go and make a copy of it just so I could fix my logs.

    I did it and got ready to fix my log book and just said screw this, went to sleep. Not only is that Log Falsification but Fraud too! ####! Snapped out of that. That's some criminal sheet right there.


    I should start checking preloaded trailers, make sure they haven't stuffed any dope in there. ####.

    Cops are not stupid. A lot of old schoolers say they rigged papper logs. A cop knows a solo driver cant go from Chicago to Los Angeles in 36 hours.
