    What do you mean 2 full days off? Today counts, you only drove 9 hours?!

    What I truly hate is the make a spots that don’t make sure that other drivers can go around or the parked drivers can pull out. Had one driver one time park in front of me not enough space to pull out and the driver either wasn’t paying any mind to me knocking or he wasn’t there. Luckily the driver to my left was just coming out I had to uncouple so he could squeeze out so then I could get out.

    One of the worst, maybe the worst was when a shipper that was 4 hours late showing up, told me if I didn't like waiting, I could have left, suprise,suprise, I still can,

    The guy in that video.. Not the Swift driver.. Would have had his ### beaten in my world. I doubt the video would be posted. Only a punk ##### would post a video like that. Funny you seem to endorse it. Call me a "Swifty" and video me anywhere most likely 2 drivers are going to jail or hospital probably both.

    So someone walking around with a camera vlogging their time on this planet would infuriate you to the point of assaulting and battering them? Did you know that law enforcement officers now have body cameras recording everything that happens in their day to day work? How do you restrain yourself? LOL
     
    x1Heavy, D.Tibbitt, Opus and 2 others Thank this.

    I will be using that from now on but will be giving them a dummy key.

    I will not leave anyone my key or cc or even id anymore.



    As for the thread,

    What gets me mad is


    That will be $340 to unload 6 pallets.

    [Friday]
    Driver: This load isn’t schedule to deliver till Monday. I can be there tomorrow, Will the consignee be available Saturday to unload?
    DM: Xxx confirms this is a drop. Hurry up and deliver this load and get paid for it this week $$$$
    Driver: 10.4, thank you sir

    [Saturday]
    Driver: Arrived at consignee. The receiver is closed till Monday and the guard says we can’t drop. It’s a live unload and I only have 30 min on my 70. Will have to park on the street since there’s no truck stops nearby till I get more hours back tonight.
