Question for the Linehaul guys

Did he unload it himself at the terminal then go back out? I mean, what was his reason for bringing it back?

I don't blame him for being pissed about it, but I agree with you. The stuff isn't heavy, just do it and move on. I don't get it. Did he do that to "punish" someone?

 

the stop after, that closes at 1 pm,is a pita timewise....I think he did it just to get that stop off, then yesterday there were flurries in the forecast.....he booked off. But that's what he did....made no sense. he only punished himself. imo.

 

waist high and light as a feather...each pallet had expanded foam.

 

Today I had a delivery at a place that is closed for the Holiday it's a lock up facility. Nobody could open up the dock door so to get the delivery made I pulled the truck up dropped the ramp and lumped the order up the steps and ended up working oh harder then I had to for sure. I got it done though...

 

I had 2 house deliveries...had to back in from the main road too the end of each road.......I doubt I'll do more than that , course we have other drivers that would just bring it back and throw it on a straight truck.....If I can do it, I'll do it.

 

today the operations mgr tried to give me a delivery appointed and out of my area....trouble was it's a straight truck delivery.....has been since I been here, going on 3 years......man management should know better.

 

naw, no way...he just wanted it off the dock......it was s'posed to go on a straight truck that day, but me thinks the straight truck driver took it off , why?I have no idea.....it's a piece a cake with the right truck.

 

I ran night time line haul for 10 years. I switched to p&d with a 09:00 start time a year ago. Even after a year I still struggle with sleeping at night and getting out of bed for work in the morning. Strangely enough I get this sudden burst of energy around 17:00 everyday. My daughter gets done with high school in a year and a half and I think I'll go back to l/h
